UNSPSC 50486809: Banana leaf purees

The type of vegetable known as banana leaf which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486809 Banana leaf purees is a Commodity code that nominally describes processed banana leaf products; however, the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code reveal minimal activity directly aligned with the code's stated scope. The opportunities reflect a much broader food procurement landscape dominated by institutional food service — cafeteria and canteen operations at state agencies, school districts, and correctional facilities are requesting comprehensive consumables including fresh, frozen, and shelf-stable staple items (proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, condiments), prepared foods (french fries, chicken wings, burritos, entrees), and food service supplies (containers, napkins, straws, gloves). The issuing bodies span Texas Health and Human Services Commission facilities (state supported living centers), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois state agency, Georgia state agency), county boards (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The code shows no dedicated banana leaf puree solicitations in the recent opportunities block and appears misaligned with actual procurement activity.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for school nutrition food products across four schools (due June 15, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic areas (due May 4, 2026). This code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with banana leaf purees; the tagged opportunities represent standard institutional food procurement under a mismatched classification.
