UNSPSC 50483802: Chinese garlic stem purees

The variety of garlic known as chinese garlic stems which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483802 Chinese garlic stem purees, a Commodity code, has no recent state and local procurement activity. The opportunities posted since January 2026 under this code include one Illinois institutional food order, one Texas health services consumables solicitation, one Oregon canned tomato bid, and multiple school district food supply procurements for fresh produce, eggs, prepared foods, and staple grocery items—none of which specifically reference Chinese garlic stem purees or garlic products of any kind. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual goods being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that garlic stem purees do not represent a material procurement category in state and local government food service.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include state institutional facilities (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission serving state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Ben Hill County Schools and multiple Georgia systems; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Liberty County, Muscogee County, and Savannah-Chatham County systems in Georgia; Burke County Public Schools in Georgia; Douglas County School System in Georgia), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million, and the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 covering food delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. The absence of garlic stem purees or related products in any of these specifications indicates the code warrants a skip unless your firm has direct relationships with produce distributors already engaged with institutional food service buyers in these jurisdictions.
