UNSPSC 50484615: Iceberg lettuce purees

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

UNSPSC 50484615 Iceberg lettuce purees is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged with this code do not reflect purees or lettuce products; instead, they span broad food service procurement including shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and consumable supplies for state facilities, schools, and correctional systems. The single opportunity that names lettuce at all (the Oregon Department of Corrections solicitation S2910000017145) solicits canned tomatoes, not iceberg lettuce purees. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being bought suggests the code is either misapplied by issuing agencies or sees minimal use in state and local procurement.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois), county boards (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), state correctional systems (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and specialized state procurement offices (Georgia, Texas Comptroller). Food service procurement under these broadly tagged opportunities runs across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois, with opportunities posted from May through October 2026 and response dates ranging from May 19 through October 23, 2026. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017872 for consumables and food service supplies at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due August 25, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026 at $13.75 per case from the prior award), and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026). No recent solicitation specifically targets iceberg lettuce purees as a standalone or primary procurement line item.
