UNSPSC 50486427: Yellow perfection tomato purees

The variety of tomates known as yellow perfection tomatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486427 Yellow perfection tomato purees (Commodity) represents a narrowly specialized product line within state and local food procurement, though recent activity under this specific code is minimal. State and local governments purchase canned and processed tomato products—including tomato paste, whole canned tomatoes, diced, stewed, and sliced varieties—primarily through school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state health and human services institutions. The issuing bodies soliciting under related tomato-product codes include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, state departments of education, county and municipal school districts, and state-supported living centers. While the code name specifies "yellow perfection tomato purees," recent solicitations tagged to this commodity family show broader tomato procurement (paste, canned whole, sliced, diced, stewed) across multiple pack formats and USDA grades, indicating that actual purchasing diverges from the narrow product name.

Recent activity centers on Oregon, Texas, Georgia, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an ITB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000016405, response due June 19, 2026) and a separate ITB for approximately 1,904 cases of tomato paste (S2910000016089, response due March 9, 2026), both FOB Destination to Salem with sodium limits (240 mg per 100 grams maximum) and minimum 12-month shelf life. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumables including tomato-based products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026; historical value $1.5 million prior period). Illinois and Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI) have solicited broader grocery and produce contracts that encompass canned tomato items among hundreds of line items. The code shows modest but steady procurement activity driven by institutional food service demand, with most opportunities emphasizing USDA Grade B or better compliance, firm fixed pricing, and weekly or monthly delivery schedules to centralized distribution centers or school sites.
