UNSPSC 50493705: Organic long keeper garlic purees

The variety of organic garlic known as organic long keeper garlic which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50493705 Organic long keeper garlic purees (Commodity) does not see material recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a specific organic produce item, but the recent solicitations tagged under it actually solicit broad consumable food baskets — mixed shelf-stable groceries, canned goods, proteins, dairy, frozen entrees, fresh produce, and food service supplies — across dozens or hundreds of line items per procurement. None of the recent opportunities explicitly name garlic purees or organic-specific produce at all. The issuing bodies posting under this code are Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state supported living centers and state hospitals), Gwinnett County (Georgia county government), Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools (school districts), the State of Georgia, and the State of Illinois. Work spans institutional food service for state facilities, corrections, schools, and senior services, with scope ranging from 20 line items for a single state facility to nearly 400 line items for a multi-school district. Delivery windows typically run 72 hours to seven days, with F.O.B. Destination pricing and prepaid freight standard across the category.

Recent activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumable foods — notably HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, response due October 23, 2026) and HHS0017872 (FY27 consumables for the same facility, response due August 25, 2026) — alongside the larger supplemental food procurement HHS0016792V2 covering state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a three-year value ceiling of $4.5 million. Gwinnett County (Georgia) solicited informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items under IWQ 140229, response due October 19, 2026. Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools each released school nutrition bids spanning hundreds of line items with firm pricing for 30 days post-award and six-month adjustment windows thereafter. Oregon Department of Corrections issued a targeted IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (response due June 19, 2026) with Oregon-fabricated and resident-bidder preferences at 5 percent. The code shows active procurement across institutional food service categories, but the mismatch between the nominal commodity (organic garlic purees) and the actual scope being solicited (broad mixed-category food baskets) suggests either miscoding of opportunities or minimal standalone demand for the specific produce line.
