UNSPSC 50484004: Snow pea purees

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

UNSPSC 50484004 Snow pea purees, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement activity almost exclusively as mislabeled line items within broader food procurement solicitations for school districts, state institutions, and correctional facilities—none of the recent opportunities reviewed actually solicit snow pea purees as a standalone product or as part of a coherent puree category. The State of Illinois, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Muscogee County School District, and Rockwood R-VI School District all posted food procurement solicitations between January and June 2026, but their actual scope covers fresh produce, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy products, proteins, grains, condiments, and prepared foods—no purees of any kind are named. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with state institutions (veterans homes, correctional facilities, state-supported living centers) and state purchasing on behalf of multiple agencies appearing less frequently. Geographic spread spans Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia, with school district activity concentrated in Georgia and Missouri.

The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its nominal scope. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (bids due July 13, 2026), the Ben Hill County Schools food bid (bids due June 15, 2026), the Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 term contract (bids due April 27, 2026, IFB 2000004323), and the Douglas County School System's food supply and distribution RFP 26-003 (bids due February 18, 2026, estimated annual value $9 million). All of these solicitations are classified under this UNSPSC code or similar food-family codes despite containing no puree specifications. The mismatch between the code's definition and actual procurements suggests either data quality issues in how opportunities are tagged or that state and local procurement databases use the code as a catchall for food products lacking a more precise commodity classification.
