UNSPSC 50493101: Organic chinese chive purees

The type of organic vegetable known as organic chives which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50493101 Organic Chinese chive purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under this taxonomy entry. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show no procurement activity for organic Chinese chive purees or any similar specialty produce item; instead, they document broad-based food and consumable supply contracts for institutional food service operations including state hospitals, supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services.

Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state health and human services commissions, state departments of corrections, county commissioners' offices, school districts, and other state agencies. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple solicitations for food and consumable products serving state supported living centers and state hospitals across fiscal years 2027 and 2028. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional solicitations from Illinois and single postings from other states. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with annual quantities from 1 to 24 cases; the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services (response due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better, with delivery to the Central Distribution Center in Salem (response due June 19, 2026); and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for hundreds of line items across fresh produce, meat, seafood, dairy, seasonings, bread, and kitchen supplies for four school locations (response due June 15, 2026). The code shows little relevance to organic Chinese chive purees; state and local procurement under this taxonomy entry focuses on large-volume, standardized food supply chains serving institutional food service rather than specialty produce items.
