UNSPSC 50486865: Water spinach purees

The type of vegetable known as water spinach which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486865 Water spinach purees (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code. The most recent solicitations tagged to this Commodity code actually seek shelf-stable prepared foods, frozen specialty items, proteins, dairy products, fresh produce, and food service supplies — but no water spinach purees appear in any of the eight opportunities reviewed. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Oregon Department of Corrections, and multiple Georgia school districts are all procuring institutional food and consumables, yet none specify water spinach or similar vegetable purees as line items. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the state and local procurement databases or that water spinach purees represent a specialized ingredient not currently in demand at the jurisdictions or facilities driving activity under this code.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with recent opportunities posted by Texas HHS (multiple state supported living centers and El Paso facility), Gwinnett County and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois state procurement, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice procurement through the Comptroller's office. The representative opportunities span IFB, RFQ, and ITB notice types with response dates ranging from May through October 2026, but they consistently address bulk food procurement for institutional food service, cafeteria operations, and canteen supply — not specialized produce items like water spinach purees. Until recent opportunities explicitly reference this Commodity code with water spinach or similar purees as line items, the code shows minimal relevant procurement activity for vendors in this product category.
