UNSPSC 50483510: Japanese eggplant purees

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

UNSPSC 50483510 Japanese eggplant purees (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code describes a narrow specialty food product, but recent opportunities tagged to this category reflect broad-based food service procurement for institutional cafeterias, school nutrition programs, and state-supported facilities, with no Japanese eggplant purees appearing as a line item in any of the sourced solicitations. State and local buyers under related food commodity codes are issuing RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs for weekly food orders, canned goods, fresh produce, dairy, proteins, and prepared entrees—standard food service staples that dominate institutional purchasing.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Douglas County School System, Georgia), and special-purpose districts (Burke County Public Schools, Georgia). Recent geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (closed April 6, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for comprehensive school nutrition food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026). These solicitations consistently emphasize USDA compliance, Buy American provisions, HACCP food safety plans, firm fixed pricing, and delivery to multiple school or facility locations. The code itself appears to be a misapplied taxonomy tag; no state or local procurement activity reflects demand for Japanese eggplant puree as a distinct product line.
