UNSPSC 50484601: Bibb lettuce purees

The variety of lettuce known as bibb lettuce which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50484601 Bibb lettuce purees, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code's scope nominally covers processed bibb lettuce products; however, the eight recent opportunities posted from May through October 2026 involve general food-service procurement for state facilities, corrections systems, and school districts and do not specifically solicit bibb lettuce purees or comparable specialty produce items. The one opportunity tangentially related to vegetables is Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (not lettuce products), and Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 IFB for cafeteria food products encompassing roughly 382 line items of proteins, dairy, grains, and canned vegetables with no mention of lettuce purees. State and local food procurement under related codes focuses on bulk shelf-stable items, prepared entrees, dairy, proteins, and fresh produce rather than specialty vegetable purees. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies (Texas HHS Commission for state supported living centers), state corrections systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), and county commissioners (Gwinnett County in Georgia).

Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with solicitations spanning HHS facilities, correctional institutions, and K–12 nutrition programs. Representative opportunities include Texas HHS Commission's October 2026 IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (22 line items of prepared foods and supplies, bids due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's October 2026 IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and sauces (quotes due October 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' June 2026 food bid encompassing fresh and frozen produce, meat, dairy, and prepared items across four school locations (bids due June 15, 2026). No recent solicitations explicitly name bibb lettuce purees or comparable specialty lettuce-based products as line items; the code appears inactive for state and local procurement purposes at present.
