UNSPSC 50494506: Organic mizuna lettuce purees

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic mizuna lettuce which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50494506 Organic mizuna lettuce purees is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity that directly matches its scope. The code nominally describes a single specialty vegetable product, yet the sixteen most recent state and local opportunities tagged to it are uniformly for broad food service solicitations—school district cafeteria and kitchen supplies, state correctional facility meals, state health and human services institutional feeding, and state veterans home food orders—in which organic mizuna lettuce purees, if procured at all, would represent a negligible line item among hundreds or thousands of food products. The mismatch between the code's granular commodity designation and the actual breadth of what state and local agencies are buying under it suggests a tagging or classification artifact rather than active market demand for the specific product.

Issuing bodies pursuing these opportunities span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System in Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia), state departments (State of Illinois Veterans Home, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Department, State of Georgia), and a regional buying cooperative (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 school districts across Georgia). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 11, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026); Ben Hill County Schools IFB for comprehensive food products across fresh and frozen produce, meat, seafood, dairy, bread, and kitchen supplies (due June 15, 2026); Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026); and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 to $1.1 million by area (due March 4, 2026). None of these solicitations identifies organic mizuna lettuce purees as a line item or addresses specialty vegetable purees as a procurement focus; the code shows little relevant recent activity.
