UNSPSC 50483504: Chinese eggplant purees

The variety of eggplants known as chinese eggplants which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483504 Chinese eggplant purees, a Commodity code, shows no recent activity directly aligned with its scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not procure eggplant purees or comparable specialty produce items; instead, state and local purchasing offices have tagged the code to solicitations for broad food service consumables including shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, condiments, and food service supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought suggests either miscoding in the source records or that Chinese eggplant purees are not a current procurement priority in state and local food-service contracting.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code span Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state-supported living centers and state hospital food service), Gwinnett County Schools (Georgia), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois state food service, and other state and local food-service operations. Geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. Representative recent solicitations include HHS0018082 issued by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission for consumables foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (IFB, due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (informal written quote, due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better (IFB, due June 19, 2026). None of these solicitations explicitly requests Chinese eggplant purees; the code appears to reflect broader institutional food-service commodity procurement rather than specialty produce lines.
