UNSPSC 50485509: Manzano pepper purees

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

UNSPSC 50485509 Manzano pepper purees is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope — manzano pepper purees as a specific food ingredient — does not match the work actually being solicited in the opportunities posted under this code number. The sourced opportunities span generic consumables, food service supplies, and institutional food procurement (fresh produce, proteins, condiments, canned goods, dairy, frozen entrees, and kitchen supplies) across Texas state agencies, Georgia school districts, Oregon state procurement, and Illinois state procurement, but none isolate manzano pepper purees as a line item or commodity. The mismatch between the code's narrow ingredient focus and the broad food-service category assignments suggests either tagging inconsistency or that manzano peppers appear only incidentally within larger food-service line-item solicitations.

State and local issuing bodies driving recent activity include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple solicitations for state supported living centers and state hospitals), Texas Department of Criminal Justice (via the Comptroller of Public Accounts), Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Oregon Department of Corrections, and the State of Illinois. Recent opportunities span IFB and IWQ notice types with response dates clustered between May and October 2026, primarily in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas HHS El Paso State Supported Living Center IFB (HHS0017449, due July 2026) covering food and consumable products with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) for approximately 382 line items across institutional facilities. Because manzano pepper purees are not materially distinguished in any recent posting, this code shows no actionable procurement signal for firms specializing in this ingredient.
