UNSPSC 50486100: Spinach purees

The type of vegetable known as spinaches which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486100 Spinach purees is a Class code that spans fresh and processed vegetable products. State and local governments procure under this code as part of broader food-service solicitations serving institutional populations—chiefly state correctional facilities, state supported living centers, school districts, and county senior services. Recent opportunities show spinach purees nested within larger food supply contracts that encompass proteins, produce, canned goods, and consumable supplies for canteen, cafeteria, and kitchen operations. The issuing bodies include state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC), state corrections agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections), county boards of education, county boards of commissioners, and independent school districts. These jurisdictions solicit with high frequency and substantial volume—annual contracts often span hundreds of line items and cover multiple facilities or service locations.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Oregon, and Georgia based on recent opportunities. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumable foods serving state supported living centers at Lufkin and El Paso, with prior-period values of $1.5 million and maximum potential values reaching $4.5 million over three-year periods; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic regions (posted May 4, 2026, due May 4, 2026). Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (IFB S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026), with 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-resident bidders. Georgia's Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia each issued school nutrition food bids spanning hundreds of line items for multi-facility delivery. The code shows steady, broad-based procurement activity across institutional food service, with contract cycles typically running July to June for schools and fiscal year-based terms for state agencies.
