UNSPSC 50485301: Purple hull pea purees

The variety of peas known as purple hull peas which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50485301 Purple hull pea purees is a Commodity code that appears in state and local procurement activity supporting institutional food service, though the recent opportunities block does not identify solicitations explicitly requesting purple hull pea purees by name or specification. Instead, the source shows a broad landscape of school districts, state agencies, and correctional and health facilities buying food products—fresh produce, frozen items, canned goods, dairy, proteins, and specialty foods—under general grocery and food-supply solicitations that use higher-tier UNSPSC classifications or NIGP codes to describe scope. State and local governments procure food products in bulk for school nutrition programs, state hospitals and supported living centers, correctional facilities, and veterans' homes, typically through IFB or RFP notices that consolidate hundreds of line items across multiple product categories and require firm fixed pricing, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, HACCP protocols, and Buy American provisions where applicable.

The issuing-body mix spans school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, State of Georgia, State of Illinois), and specialized facilities (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, TDCJ correctional facilities). Recent activity clusters heavily in Georgia school districts, which have posted multiple grocery and produce solicitations between January and June 2026. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017145 for canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (due April 27, 2026), and Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services solicitations for grocery items and NOI products (due April 29, 2026). Geographic spread is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois, with school-district activity dominant. The code shows no recent opportunities specifically for purple hull pea purees as a named commodity, indicating limited direct procurement activity under this granular specification or misalignment between the code and what state and local governments are actually buying at present.
