UNSPSC 50484817: Shimeji mushroom purees

The variety of mushrooms known as shimeji mushrooms which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50484817 Shimeji mushroom purees (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local contract opportunities. The code is narrowly specialized—naming a single fungal product in a particular form—while the opportunities posted in the dataset reflect broad-based food service procurement by schools, correctional facilities, and health services agencies buying dozens or hundreds of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and prepared foods. A search of the opportunities block returns no reference to shimeji mushrooms, shiitake, or specialty mushroom products of any kind, whether fresh, frozen, pureed, or dried. Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood School District, and Ben Hill County Schools all solicited food products between January and June 2026, but none tagged the procurements with this code or named mushroom purees as a line item.

The absence of activity under this code is itself a signal. State and local food service procurement is concentrated among high-volume commodity categories—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and dry goods—where scale and standardized sourcing dominate. Specialty products like shimeji mushroom purees, if procured at all, are likely bundled into broader produce or specialty-food line items under parent codes or acquired through cooperative-purchasing vehicles not reflected in this dataset, or procured so infrequently that they do not generate visible activity in the recent-opportunities window. Unless your firm has established relationships with institutional food service directors at universities, large hospitals, or high-end K–12 nutrition programs with advanced menus, this code warrants a skip.
