UNSPSC 50486413: Marvel striped traditional tomato purees

The variety of tomates known as marvel striped traditional tomatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486413 Marvel striped traditional tomato purees (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears to describe a branded tomato product, but the recent-opportunities block contains solicitations for broad food service categories—canned tomatoes, tomato paste, fresh produce, grocery items, and school nutrition contracts—none of which specifically request Marvel-brand striped tomato purees or the precise product this Commodity code names. The opportunities tag generic tomato products (ODOC's "Tomato Canned" at 7,616 cases, Oregon Department of Corrections' "Tomato Paste" at 1,904 cases) or allow brand-or-equal substitution, but none identify the specific Marvel product or premium striped variant as a line item.

State and local buyers across school districts, corrections departments, health and human services commissions, and veterans homes are actively procuring food products at scale—the Douglas County Schools RFP anticipates $9 million in annual food service spending, the GEC Buying Cooperative RFP spans 30 Georgia school districts with $5.5 million combined estimated annual produce spending, and the Texas HHSC supplemental food procurement reaches $4.5 million potential value—but these opportunities do not target specialty branded tomato products. The issuing bodies (Oregon DOC, Texas HHSC, Illinois Veterans Home, Georgia school systems, and others) solicit through ITB, RFP, and RFQ notices with response dates ranging from February through July 2026. Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Missouri, with school nutrition programs the dominant customer segment. To pursue opportunities under this Commodity code, vendors would need to identify buyers who specifically require the Marvel product by name or establish it as an approved equal within broader tomato-product categories—a narrower and less predictable pathway than the generic tomato solicitations currently posted.
