UNSPSC 50485505: Cubanelles pepper purees

The variety of peppers known as cubanelles peppers which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50485505 Cubanelles pepper purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent relevant activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code focus almost exclusively on broad food procurement for state institutions — particularly state supported living centers, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs — rather than the specific product of cubanelles pepper purees or comparable specialty pepper products. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's bid for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026), which encompasses 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies but does not itemize cubanelles pepper purees; the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026); and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid for school nutrition (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026), which covers fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and condiments across multiple schools but does not specify pepper purees as a distinct line item. Issuing bodies soliciting under this taxonomy include state health and human services commissions, departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, and independent school districts across Georgia, Texas, and Oregon.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, where state agencies, counties, and school districts post multiple food service bids annually. The recent opportunities suggest that cubanelles pepper purees, if purchased at all, are likely components of broader prepared-food or sauce line items rather than standalone commodity purchases. A business development professional evaluating this code should recognize that it reflects a mismatch between the narrow commodity name and the actual state and local buying pattern — institutions source food in bulk aggregate contracts covering hundreds of line items, not individual pepper products. Pursue this code only if your firm supplies food products as a component of multifamily institutional catering or food-service contracts, or if you hold distribution relationships with large regional food wholesalers bidding those comprehensive institutional food bids.
