UNSPSC 50483504: Chinese eggplant purees

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

UNSPSC 50483504 Chinese eggplant purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the recent procurement activity posted under it. The source shows recent opportunities tagged to this code involving broad food supply and cafeteria product procurement—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, condiments, and supplies for school districts, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and veterans homes—rather than Chinese eggplant purees specifically. State and local food service operations, particularly school nutrition programs and institutional food service divisions, post these solicitations. Issuing bodies include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Burke County, Ben Hill County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County school systems in Georgia; Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments and agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and county governments (Muscogee County in Georgia). The code shows activity across multiple states with notable clustering in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia.

Recent representative opportunities under this code include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026, covering products under NIGP Class/Item numbers 385, 390, 380, and 393 with a historical value of $1.5 million for the prior period; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes due April 6, 2026 (procurement details unavailable); Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 due April 27, 2026, seeking a distributor to supply 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens with weekly deliveries; and Rockwood R-VI School District's dual grocery solicitations (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027 and CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027) due April 29, 2026, for over 900 line items across multiple categories serving approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast participants. The volume and frequency of school nutrition and institutional food service procurements under this code indicate substantial, consistent demand, though the mismatch between the nominal commodity description and actual scope suggests the code is being used as a catch-all for general food service supply rather than for the specific product named.
