UNSPSC 50483420: Telegraph cucumber purees

The variety of cucumbers known as telegraph cucumbers which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483420 Telegraph cucumber purees is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The source contains fourteen recent opportunities spanning food service procurement across school districts, correctional facilities, veterans homes, and state health and human services agencies, yet none of the opportunities explicitly solicit telegraph cucumber purees or any cucumber puree product. The opportunities instead address broader food supply categories — canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, general grocery items, and supplemental food and consumables for institutional food service operations — indicating either that this specific commodity code was misapplied to the solicitation records or that telegraph cucumber purees do not represent an active procurement area in recent state and local contracting.

The fourteen opportunities do show strong activity among school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), reflecting standard institutional food service demand across the South and Midwest. Representative recent procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's HHS0017449 IFB for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' S2910000016405 ITB for canned tomatoes (due April 6, 2026), and multiple school district RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce, eggs, and grocery items with response dates clustered in April through June 2026. If telegraph cucumber purees are a legitimate procurement need, business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification and monitor institutional food service channels directly rather than relying on this code.
