UNSPSC 50483810: Spanish morado garlic purees

The variety of garlic known as spanish morado garlic which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50483810 Spanish morado garlic purees, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within the broader food service procurement activity of state and local governments. Recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code show little concrete demand for Spanish morado garlic purees specifically; instead, issuers are soliciting cafeteria and institutional food supplies on a much wider basis—fresh produce, frozen proteins, dairy, condiments, and consumables—often with generic language that permits substitution of approved equivalents or does not name purees at all. The issuing bodies acquiring institutional foods are primarily state health and human services departments operating supported living centers and state hospitals, county school nutrition programs, county departments of community services, state departments of corrections, and county boards of education. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, issuing multiple IFBs for food and consumables across state facilities. The issuing bodies span institutional food service operations rather than retail or specialty food distribution channels.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted two recent solicitations—IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026 (due October 23, 2026) for consumables for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, and IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumables for El Paso State Supported Living Center, each spanning 20+ line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with estimated annual usage in single-digit to low-double-digit cases per item. Georgia jurisdictions posted food procurement bids through Gwinnett County (IWQ 140229, informal written quote due October 19, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable items) and Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, sealed bid due June 15, 2026 for multi-category school nutrition supplies). Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned tomatoes (IFB S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) and potatoes (S2910000017460, due July 27, 2026), both in volume quantities but not naming garlic purees. None of the recent opportunities explicitly request Spanish morado garlic purees; the code assignment does not align with the commodities actually being procured under these notices.
