UNSPSC 50494018: Organic perilla purees

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

UNSPSC 50494018 Organic perilla purees is a Commodity code that sees no recent relevant state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code span consumable food procurement by institutional buyers — state health and human services agencies, county boards of commissioners, school districts, departments of corrections, and state criminal justice systems — but the actual items being solicited are mainstream institutional food products (canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, frozen entrees, fresh produce, condiments, kitchen supplies) rather than specialized organic perilla purees. The code's nominal scope does not align with what state and local governments are currently buying or contracting for under this classification.

The nine recent opportunities in the dataset show food procurement activity concentrated in Texas (multiple Health and Human Services Commission solicitations for state supported living centers and state hospitals), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the State of Georgia), and Oregon (Department of Corrections canned tomato procurement) posted between May and October 2026, with response dates clustered in May through July and again in October 2026. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food items including peanut butter and canned proteins (due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with a prior award at $13.75 per case), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food categories under Buy American Act constraints (due June 15, 2026). The code shows activity but no evidence of organic perilla purees as an active procurement item, signaling that this Commodity code is either misapplied to broader food procurement or genuinely inactive in state and local contracting.
