UNSPSC 50494102 Organic collard green purees is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh or processed vegetable products sourced through state and local institutional food procurement. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reveal that governments buy shelf-stable and fresh food items—including canned vegetables, frozen produce, and specialty food products—for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and other institutional operations. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), state corrections agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County), and school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools). Work solicited under the code spans multi-line-item competitive bids for food supply contracts ranging from dozens to nearly 400 line items, with pricing typically submitted on a unit or case basis and delivery required within days to weeks of order placement.
