UNSPSC 50494007: Organic cipolino purees

The variety of organic herbs known as organic cipolinos which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494007 Organic cipolino purees is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—specialty organic fruit purees—does not align with the actual work state and local governments have been soliciting under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are instead requesting broad food and consumables procurement for school districts, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and state-supported living centers, with the overwhelming majority involving mainstream grocery items such as canned tomatoes, fresh produce, proteins, dairy products, condiments, and prepared foods rather than specialized organic purees.

State and local issuing bodies pursuing food procurement include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Douglas County School System in Georgia; Burke County Public Schools in Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home, Georgia Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools), and health facilities (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center in Texas). Geographic spread spans Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Virginia, and Missouri, with school nutrition programs being the dominant soliciting category. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026, with prior monthly value of $1.5 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (response due June 19, 2026, with previous pricing at $13.75 per case); Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across multiple categories for four school locations (response due June 15, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 serving 45 schools and distribution centers (response due April 27, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity description and actual procurement activity suggests either miscoding in state procurement systems or that this UNSPSC classification is not commonly used for food procurement in practice.
