UNSPSC 50486824: Diakon purees

The type of vegetable known as diakon which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486824 Diakon purees is a Commodity code that represents prepared fruit and vegetable purees used in institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations show limited activity explicitly tagged to this code. When present, diakon purees appear as line items within broader consumable food procurements for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs rather than as standalone buys. State and local governments using this code tend to be state health and human services departments, departments of corrections, school districts, and county social services agencies purchasing food and supplies for congregate meal operations. The work encompasses both direct food product supply and the broader ecosystem of food service consumables—containers, napkins, serving trays, and related items—that accompany protein and produce procurement.

Activity under this code concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary presence in Oregon and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, bids due October 23, 2026) and IFB HHS0017872 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center food and kitchen items, bids due August 25, 2026), both seeking dozens of line items spanning prepared foods and food service supplies for fiscal year 2027 operations; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and sauces for Department of Community Services, quotes due October 19, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF (cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas, approximately 382 line items, response due May 4, 2026). Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia and Burke County Public Schools also posted school nutrition food bids in May and June 2026 covering hundreds of line items with delivery to multiple school locations. Pricing is typically F.O.B. Destination with freight prepaid, delivery windows generally require fulfillment within seven days of order receipt, and contracts run annual terms with renewal or extension options at issuing body discretion.
