UNSPSC 50494000: Organic herb purees

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

UNSPSC 50494000 Organic herb purees, a Class code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The most recent opportunities posted under or near this code designation involve canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, cafeteria food products, grocery items for school nutrition programs, and supplemental food and consumables for state institutions—but no solicitations specifically name organic herb purees or similar specialty processed produce items as line items or contract focus.

The opportunities that do appear across the broader food procurement landscape reflect school districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and state institutions as dominant buyers. These issuing bodies solicit food products through RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs, typically on annual or quarterly cycles. Recent examples include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHS0017449, supplemental food and consumables for state supported living centers, due July 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections (S2910000016089, tomato paste, due March 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools (2000004323, Master Grocery K-12, due April 2026), and the Douglas County School System in Georgia (PE64810NONST2026000000047, fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative, due March 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. The code itself—organic herb purees as a discrete commodity—shows no matching solicitations in the recent record; if pursuing this code, monitor school nutrition RFPs and state institutional food services more closely, as demand for specialty or value-added produce items may emerge through line-item additions rather than stand-alone buys.
