UNSPSC 50494403: Organic green lentil purees

The variety of organic lentils known as organic green lentils which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494403 Organic green lentil purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly matching its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting organic green lentil purees or lentil-based products. Instead, state and local agencies are sourcing a broad range of food products—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, grocery staples, proteins, dairy, prepared foods, and consumables—through school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health and human services operations. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the opportunities posted under this UNSPSC number appear to reflect either misclassification by issuing offices or a mismatch between the code taxonomy and actual procurement practice at the state and local level.

School districts, correctional departments, and state health agencies dominate food procurement across the opportunities block, with notable repeat buyers including Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school systems (Douglas County, Burke County, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County), Illinois Veterans Home, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Geographic activity spans Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs and institutional food service driving the largest volume of solicitations. 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 (due July 13, 2026, estimated historical value $1.5 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, due April 6, 2026); Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for comprehensive food procurement across four schools (due June 15, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens. Procurement under this code segment is not currently actionable for vendors specializing in organic lentil purees; buyers are sourcing food through broad-basket solicitations that would not isolate this commodity line.
