UNSPSC 50484300: Kohlrabi purees

The type of vegetable known as kohlrabi which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50484300 Kohlabi purees, a Class code, nominally covers a single vegetable-puree commodity, but recent state and local solicitations show the code is being tagged for much broader food-procurement activity—prepared and shelf-stable foods, fresh and frozen proteins, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies for institutional food service. The actual work is large-scale food supply for state hospitals, state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and other public institutions. Issuing bodies include state departments of health and human services, departments of corrections, school districts, and county boards. The scope in recent bids spans dozens to hundreds of line items with firm unit pricing, delivery within 3 to 30 days of order, F.O.B. Destination terms, and compliance with USDA standards, Buy American Act requirements where applicable, and federal food safety regulations. Bidders must submit references, insurance documentation, debarment certifications, and often HACCP or food-safety plan evidence.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted three bids between May and October 2026 for HHSC and state supported living centers—IFB HHS0016792V2 (supplemental food and consumables, max potential value $4.5 million over three years, bids due March 19, 2026), IFB HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, prior period value $1.5 million, bids due July 13, 2026), and IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, bids due October 23, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller posted IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five warehouse regions (bids due May 4, 2026). In Georgia, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food items (bids due October 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools posted IFB #26271 (bids due June 15, 2026), and Burke County Public Schools sought food bids due June 5, 2026. Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026). Illinois and the State of Georgia posted additional food orders in May–June 2026. The code shows steady activity across the public food-service procurement pipeline with no signs of slowdown.
