UNSPSC 50492907: Organic salad king chicory purees

The variety of organic chicory known as organic salad king chicory which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50492907 Organic salad king chicory purees, a Commodity code, does not align with actual state and local procurement activity under the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities block contains zero solicitations for chicory, chicory purees, or any organic produce purées; instead, state and local governments are soliciting generic food products—fresh and frozen vegetables, canned tomatoes, proteins, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies—for institutional food service at correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, county senior services, school nutrition programs, and other government canteens. The code's narrow, specific name bears no relationship to the broad commodities and services actually being bought.

The recent opportunities reflect purchasing activity across Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple state supported living centers and state hospitals), Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia and Texas school districts, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), and Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), spanning Texas, Georgia, and Oregon with activity concentrated in institutional food service procurement. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017872 for consumables and food items at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due August 25, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest in February 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for school nutrition food products across four locations (due June 15, 2026, with Buy American Act requirements), and Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid for comprehensive grocery procurement across five schools (due June 5, 2026). This code shows no relevant recent activity and appears to be a mismatch between the UNSPSC taxonomy label and actual state and local procurement categories.
