UNSPSC 50485522: Guerro pepper purees

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

UNSPSC 50485522 Guerro pepper purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—specialty pepper purée products—does not align with the opportunities posted in the most recent state-local-contract-opportunities block. The recent solicitations tagged under or near this code focus on broad food supply, produce, and consumable procurement for institutional buyers: school nutrition programs, state corrections facilities, state health and human services agencies, and state veterans' homes. These solicitations span canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, bulk grocery items, and cafeteria food products—categories that fall under broader commodity food codes rather than specialty pepper purées.

The issuing bodies span multiple jurisdictions: school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Burke County and Liberty County in Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia; Douglas County in Georgia; Ben Hill County in Georgia) dominate the opportunities block, alongside state departments and agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia). The geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, Texas, and Oregon, with secondary activity in Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent procurements include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 for delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Contract values where disclosed are substantial—Douglas County School System's food supply RFP estimated approximately $9,000,000 annually; the GEC Buying Cooperative fresh produce and eggs RFP for 30 school districts estimated approximately $5.5 million annually. State and local buyers tagging this code are purchasing mainstream institutional food commodities, not specialty pepper purées, suggesting the code assignment is a cataloging error rather than an active procurement market for the product.
