UNSPSC 50484003: Garden pea purees

The variety of green peas known as garden peas which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50484003 Garden pea purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in state and local procurement solicitations. The recent-opportunities dataset contains no purchases of garden pea purees by name, specification, or as a line item. State and local agencies soliciting under this code window are instead buying broad-scope consumable food products—proteins, fresh and frozen produce, dairy, grains, condiments, canned vegetables, and food service supplies—for institutional food service operations, most prominently state-supported living centers, corrections facilities, state hospitals, school districts, and county senior services programs. The code's nominal scope (a specific pureed vegetable product) diverges materially from what issuing bodies actually procure when they tag opportunities with this number; the recent activity reflects general food procurement rather than the product category the code names.

The issuing-body mix spans Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple solicitations for state-supported living centers and hospitals), Texas Department of Criminal Justice (cafeteria food for prison warehouses), Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (senior services), and Illinois state procurement for institutional food supply. Geographic concentration falls heavily in Texas and Georgia, with activity also in Oregon and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026, 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (due October 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for school nutrition food across four schools (due June 15, 2026, hundreds of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, and dry goods with Buy American Act compliance required). Contract values where disclosed range from estimated annual usage under $1.5 million to multi-year maximums of $4.5 million. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to its stated commodity definition.
