UNSPSC 50494100: Organic kale purees

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

UNSPSC 50494100 Organic kale purees is a Class code that does not map to the state and local procurement activity actually being posted under it. The recent solicitations tagged with this code span institutional food service procurement — prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, canned proteins, dairy products, condiments, and food service supplies for state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services — but none of the opportunities specifically solicit organic kale purees or kale products of any kind. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears most frequently in the recent window, with three separate IFBs for food and consumables at state supported living centers and state hospitals; other repeat buyers include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) and specialized state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois state procurement, Georgia state procurement, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division).

State and local food service procurement under this code shows activity across Texas (particularly HHS and correctional system), Georgia (school districts and state agency), Oregon (Department of Corrections), and Illinois, with response dates concentrated in May through October 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, historical value $1.5 million), the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (quotes due October 19, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (due May 4, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for comprehensive food and kitchen supplies across four school locations (due June 15, 2026). The code assignment appears to be a data-entry or classification error rather than a signal of actual procurement demand for organic kale purees at the state and local level.
