UNSPSC 50486852: Sinquas purees

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

UNSPSC 50486852 Sinquas purees (Commodity) does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurements indexed under this code. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying shelf-stable and prepared food products—canned vegetables, proteins, grains, condiments, dairy, and consumable food service supplies such as containers, napkins, and straws—for institutional food service operations at state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school districts, and county senior services. The code's nominal product name (sinquas purees) bears no relation to the work actually being solicited. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments, state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, independent school districts, and state procurement offices acting on behalf of state agencies. The mix reflects routine institutional food service procurement across custody, care, and educational settings.

State and local activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumable foods and supplemental food products serving state-supported living centers (HHS0018082, HHS0017872, HHS0017449, HHS0016792V2), with response dates ranging from August through October 2026 and historical contract values reaching $1.5 million to $4.5 million over multi-year periods. Georgia school districts—Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, June 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (PE55037NONST2027000000007, June 2026)—solicited comprehensive food and supplies bids spanning hundreds of line items for annual school nutrition programs. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (IWQ 140229, October 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections bid canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, June 2026) under state preferences for Oregon-fabricated goods and resident bidders. The code shows no recent relevant activity in other states or regions.
