UNSPSC 50493512: Organic sugarhat endive purees

The variety of organic endives known as organic sugarhat endives which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50493512 Organic sugarhat endive purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single specialty produce item—organic endive puree—yet recent solicitations under this code encompass broad food service categories spanning proteins, dairy, frozen entrees, fresh produce, canned goods, condiments, and consumable supplies for institutional feeding. State and local buyers issuing under this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Burke County Public Schools, Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Douglas County School System, Georgia), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of State, State of Georgia), and prison systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement volume suggests the code may be a catch-all classification or a misapplication by jurisdictions in data entry.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with the highest volume in Georgia school districts and Texas state agencies. Representative recent solicitations include Texas Health and Human Services Commission Procurement and Contracting Services' IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens (response due April 27, 2026), the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across Texas Department of Criminal Justice warehouse locations (response due May 4, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for food products serving four school locations (response due June 15, 2026). Contract values where disclosed range from approximately $1.5 million to $9 million annually. The code shows no meaningful recent opportunities specific to organic endive puree; vendors evaluating pursuit should treat this code as signaling broad institutional food service demand rather than a specialty product category.
