UNSPSC 50486426: Yellow pear-shaped tomato purees

The variety of tomates known as yellow pear-shaped tomatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486426 Yellow pear-shaped tomato purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. State and local governments purchase food products—fresh, frozen, canned, and prepared items—through this and related codes to supply institutional facilities including state-supported living centers, correctional institutions, school nutrition programs, senior services, and other public agencies. The issuing bodies soliciting under food-procurement codes span Texas Health and Human Services Commission, state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, county schools, and state governments. These entities source hundreds of line items across broad food categories: proteins, dairy, produce, grains, condiments, prepared foods, and food service supplies with specifications emphasizing USDA grades, shelf life, sodium content, labeling, and delivery timelines. Recent opportunities from the broader food-procurement family show Texas state agencies, Oregon state agencies, Georgia counties and schools, and Illinois state agencies as active buyers with substantial volume requirements—ranging from thousands of cases annually to estimated contract values exceeding $1 million over multi-year terms.

The recent opportunities block contains nine food-related solicitations posted between May and October 2026, but none explicitly names yellow pear-shaped tomato purees as a line item. The most directly relevant tomato-specific opportunity is Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing/Contracts Division IFB S2910000017145, posted June 5, 2026 with bids due June 19, 2026, for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (sliced, diced, stewed, halves, or whole) meeting USDA Grade B or better, delivered to Salem, Oregon—a straightforward commodity purchase. Representative broader food procurements include Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026) and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products for senior services (posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026). The code itself does not appear as a primary tag in recent Texas, Georgia, Oregon, or Illinois institutional food solicitations; tomato products surface as line items within broader consumable-food procurements rather than as standalone commodity codes. Activity is concentrated in Texas, Oregon, and Georgia with ongoing demand from state institutional facilities and school systems, but the specific yellow pear-shaped tomato puree category shows no distinct recent solicitation history in the available records.
