UNSPSC 50483509: Italian eggplant purees

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

UNSPSC 50483509 Italian eggplant purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly tied to this specific product line. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting Italian eggplant purees or eggplant products of any kind. Instead, the opportunities show broad food-service procurement spanning multiple product categories—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and consumable supplies—issued by state departments, school districts, and correctional facilities across Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Missouri. The code appears misaligned with the actual buying patterns in the sample, which target general food supply contracts rather than a single specialty vegetable puree.

State and local governments issuing food procurement under related codes (such as broader grocery and produce categories) include school nutrition programs at the district level—Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia—alongside state correctional systems (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC, Illinois Veterans Home), and county school systems. Recent solicitations emphasize bulk purchases of canned tomatoes (Oregon DOC, approximately 7,616 cases at $14.30–$13.75 per case), fresh produce (school districts across Georgia and Virginia), and comprehensive food service supplies with firm fixed pricing and quarterly or annual contract terms. If your firm supplies Italian eggplant purees or specialty vegetable products to institutional food service, monitor broader UNSPSC family codes covering canned vegetables and prepared food components rather than this specific commodity code, which shows no current state or local demand signal.
