UNSPSC 50485805: Hijiki purees

The variety of sea vegetables known as hijiki which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50485805 Hijiki purees (Commodity) does not appear in active state and local procurement. The code name refers to a specialized seaweed puree product, but the recent opportunities tagged under this code involve broad consumables procurement for institutional food service — prepared foods, canned goods, fresh produce, dairy, and food-service supplies — with no mention of hijiki or seaweed-based products in any of the solicitations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is either misapplied in the source data or carries minimal transactional relevance to state and local buyers.

The recent opportunities show state health and human services commissions, county school districts, and state corrections departments issuing IFBs and informal written quotes for food items supporting canteens, cafeterias, and institutional dining across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon between May and October 2026. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with a previous award at $13.75 per case). These procurements emphasize USDA compliance, delivery within 30 to 72 hours of order, FOB Destination pricing, and minimum three references. If your firm supplies specialized food ingredients or finished food products to state or local institutional food services, monitor codes aligned with actual product categories — canned goods, fresh produce, prepared entrees — rather than this code.
