UNSPSC 50486819: Chrysanthemum greens purees

The type of vegetable known as chrysanthemum greens which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486819 Chrysanthemum greens purees is a Commodity code that state and local government procurement offices use narrowly—the code itself appears in recent solicitations but does not reflect the actual scope of activity being purchased. The recent opportunities tagged under this code overwhelmingly focus on broad-based food procurement for state institutions, school districts, and corrections departments, spanning fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, frozen items, and consumable supplies rather than purees of chrysanthemum greens specifically. State and local buyers include school nutrition programs across multiple districts (Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Burke County and Liberty County in Georgia, Douglas County and Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Ben Hill County in Georgia, Fairfax County in Virginia), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Georgia, State of Illinois), and special-purpose institutional facilities (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, TDCJ facilities across Texas). These bodies solicit under RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs with firm fixed pricing structures, delivery schedules ranging from weekly to on-demand, and contract terms typically running one to three years with renewal options.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (where school districts in multiple counties—Douglas, Burke, Liberty, Muscogee, Savannah-Chatham, Ben Hill—posted fresh produce and comprehensive food bids), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ institutional food procurement across multiple facilities statewide), Oregon (Department of Corrections canned tomato and tomato paste solicitations), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District grocery and produce bids), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools master grocery K-12 contract), and Illinois (state veterans home quarterly food orders). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center with a response date of July 13, 2026 and a historical value of $1.5 million; the Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs to 30 school districts with estimated spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One, due March 4, 2026; and the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026 at 9:00 AM PST with delivery to Salem. The mismatch between the nominal code name and recent procurement activity suggests this commodity code is either applied as a catchall for food-related solicitations or misclassified in state and local systems; business development professionals should verify whether pursuit makes sense by reviewing the actual line-item scope within each RFP or IFB rather than relying on the code designation alone.
