UNSPSC 50493321: Organic telegraph improved cucumber purees

The variety of organic cucumbers known as organic telegraph improved cucumbers which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50493321 Organic telegraph improved cucumber purees, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity. The most recent opportunities on record in this category all describe food procurement for institutional canteens, school nutrition programs, state corrections facilities, and supported living centers—but none solicits cucumber purees, organic or otherwise. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Georgia and Texas school districts are active in food procurement more broadly, acquiring prepared foods, frozen vegetables, canned fruits and proteins, and food service supplies in weekly, monthly, and annual volumes. However, these opportunities emphasize shelf-stable staples (rice, pasta, canned tomatoes, proteins, condiments), fresh and frozen produce, and dairy—not pureed products or items coded as telegraph improved cucumbers. The code's nominal scope—a highly specific processed vegetable product—does not align with the commodity mix state and local governments are purchasing in this market segment right now.

Recent opportunities in the broader food procurement family span Texas (HHSC facilities, TDCJ corrections, state supported living centers), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Schools, State of Georgia), and Oregon (ODOC), with school nutrition programs and state institutional food service representing the dominant buyer base. The most active issuing bodies are the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (IFB HHS0018082 for Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026; IFB HHS0017872 for similar items, posted August 11, 2026; IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center, posted June 11, 2026; IFB HHS0016792v2 for statewide supplemental food, posted May 19, 2026), school districts in Georgia (Burke County Public Schools IFB, Ben Hill County Schools IFB, due June 15, 2026), and Gwinnett County (IWQ 140229, posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026). Unless cucumber purees are specified in individual line items within these broader food contracts—which the summaries do not reveal—this code warrants watch status but not active pursuit.
