UNSPSC 50493513: Organic verona endive purees

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

UNSPSC 50493513 Organic verona endive purees, Commodity tier, does not show recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span institutional food service — state supported living centers, corrections facilities, school nutrition programs, and county social services — but the solicitations name shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy, condiments, and staple dry goods for high-volume meal production and canteen operations, not organic endive purees or specialty vegetable products. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or a narrow niche within bulk food provisioning that the public record has not captured in recent months.

The code shows no representative recent opportunities actually soliciting endive purees or products matching the Commodity's descriptor. State and local food procurement under similar codes remains concentrated among Texas Health and Human Services Commission facilities (Lufkin and El Paso State Supported Living Centers), Texas Department of Criminal Justice warehouse distribution, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Department of Community Services, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the State of Illinois. Recent IFB and IWQ notices across these jurisdictions (Texas HHS0018082 and HHS0017449, Gwinnett County IWQ 140229, Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271, and TDCJ IFB 304T-26-300CF, all posted May through October 2026) emphasize commodity-volume food products under firm fixed pricing with FOB Destination delivery, USDA grade compliance, and 30-day turnaround. If organic specialty produce is being procured by state or local agencies, it is not visible in this recent posting window under this code.
