UNSPSC 50483513: Moneymaker eggplant purees

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

UNSPSC 50483513 Moneymaker eggplant purees (Commodity) does not reflect the actual scope of work state and local governments are soliciting under this code. Recent opportunities tagged to this Commodity code are predominantly broad food-supply procurements for institutional canteens, cafeterias, and food-service operations—including proteins, fresh and frozen produce, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable supplies—rather than a specialized eggplant product line. The issuing bodies span state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois, Georgia, Oregon), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Burke County Schools, Georgia), and state correctional and support-living facilities. Texas entities appear repeatedly in recent postings, particularly the HHSC issuing multiple IFBs for food and consumable products to state-supported living centers and the Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The work being actively solicited involves responsive bidding on large line-item rosters (ranging from 20 to 382 line items) with firm fixed pricing, F.O.B. Destination delivery terms, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and multi-location fulfillment across facility networks.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center due October 23, 2026, and IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 13, 2026, each spanning 20–35 line items with estimated annual values in the $1.5 million range. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division solicited 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with a prior-purchase reference of $13.75 per case. School nutrition programs in Georgia—Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools—each posted comprehensive food bids for fiscal 2026–2027 in May and early June 2026. The Commodity code itself shows little decision relevance; the actual procurement activity is institutional food-supply contracting with no apparent focus on specialized eggplant products.
