UNSPSC 50486816: Cha-om purees

The type of vegetable known as cha-om which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486816 Cha-om purees, a Commodity code, shows no recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve broad food-service procurement for institutional buyers—state veterans homes, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and school districts—purchasing canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, general groceries, and food-service supplies rather than cha-om purees or other specialty Southeast Asian plant-based products. The mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement suggests either miscategorization in the source data or extremely limited real-world use of this specific commodity code in state and local government contracting.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state departments (Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Georgia), county school districts (Ben Hill County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Burke County, Douglas County, Rockwood, and Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia and Missouri), and independent school systems (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia). The geographic spread concentrates in the Southeast and South-Central regions—Georgia, Texas, and Missouri dominate the opportunity list—with secondary activity in Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving state-supported living centers statewide with proposals due July 13, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases) due June 19, 2026; and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323) for food delivery to 45 elementary, middle, and high schools with sealed bids due April 27, 2026. No opportunities in the dataset target cha-om purees specifically; all solicitations reflect demand for commoditized food products supplied through established distribution channels.
