UNSPSC 50486830: Ginger root purees

The type of vegetable known as ginger root which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486830 Ginger root purees is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specialized ingredient, but the recent state and local opportunities do not reflect procurement activity targeting ginger root purees specifically. Instead, the code appears to have been applied to broader food service and school nutrition solicitations that encompass multi-category grocery, produce, and consumable products — including proteins, dairy, canned goods, fresh fruits and vegetables, breads, condiments, and prepared foods — where ginger root purees, if procured at all, would represent a single line item among hundreds. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and regional education cooperatives (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District), with secondary activity from state agencies managing correctional facilities, state hospitals, and supported living centers (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, State of Georgia). School nutrition programs dominate the recent opportunity mix, reflecting the seasonal rhythm of K–12 food service contracting tied to the July 2026 through June 2027 fiscal cycle.

Recent opportunities span multiple states, with notable concentration in Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, State of Georgia), followed by Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Rockwood R-VI School District), and Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections). Representative recent solicitations include Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for a comprehensive food bid due June 15, 2026, covering fresh and frozen produce, meat and seafood, dairy, seasonings, bread, and cafeteria furnishings across four school locations; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, requiring weekly deliveries to 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens. The code shows no recent activity specifically targeting ginger root purees as a primary procurement focus and should be treated as a low-fit opportunity category for vendors specializing in that ingredient unless they can position themselves as line-item suppliers within large multi-category school nutrition or institutional food service contracts.
