About UNSPSC 50493005
UNSPSC 50493005 Organic dwarf bok choy purees (Commodity) does not reflect state and local government food procurement activity documented in recent opportunities. The source records eleven recent state and local solicitations for food and consumables posted between May and October 2026, spanning Texas health and human services agencies, Georgia and Oregon corrections and school nutrition programs, county social services, and county schools. None of these opportunities name or reference bok choy purees, organic or otherwise. The actual purchases documented are conventional institutional food service items: prepared proteins (chicken, beef, fish), frozen vegetables, canned goods, dairy products, grains, condiments, fresh produce, and food service supplies for state hospitals, state supported living centers, correctional facilities, schools, and senior services programs. The code's nominal scope—a single specialty vegetable puree product—does not align with the breadth and composition of food procurement under this UNSPSC tag in practice.
Recent issuing bodies include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple state supported living center procurements), Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts (on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and school districts in Georgia and Texas. Texas health agencies appear most frequently in the record, with three documented solicitations for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (response due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes with 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods (response due June 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' sealed bid for comprehensive food products across four schools (response due June 15, 2026).
