UNSPSC 50492701: Organic celebrity celery purees

The variety of organic celery known as organic celebrity celery which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50492701 Organic celebrity celery purees (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity documented in the recent opportunities block. The code's nominal scope describes a single specialty produce item, but the recent solicitations show no demand for organic celery purees specifically. Instead, state and local governments are procuring broad food supply portfolios that include fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, and consumables in bulk quantities to serve institutional food service operations.

The documented opportunities span school districts, corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and veterans' homes across Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Missouri, issuing IFBs, RFPs, and RFQs for comprehensive quarterly or annual food contracts. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covering food and consumables for state supported living centers with prior spend of $1.5 million annually; the Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) supplying 45 schools plus distribution kitchens; the Douglas County School System food supply RFP (26-003, due February 18, 2026) with estimated annual spend of $9 million; and the Ben Hill County Schools food procurement (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) covering fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and supplies for four school locations. These procurements consistently emphasize USDA compliance, Buy American provisions, nutritional standards, and firm fixed pricing with quarterly or annual terms. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the single commodity approach does not match state and local government food service purchasing patterns, which favor multi-category, volume-based supply agreements rather than single-ingredient specialty items.
