About UNSPSC 50494517
UNSPSC 50494517 Organic looseleaf lettuce purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific scope. Recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not actually solicit organic looseleaf lettuce purees; instead, issuing bodies are sourcing broad food product categories—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, cafeteria foods, school nutrition staples, and consumable supplies—that fall under higher-tier UNSPSC families covering general food procurement rather than this specialized produce category. The mismatch suggests the code has been applied incorrectly to these opportunities or the code itself sees limited discrete demand for its exact product line in state and local purchasing.
When opportunities are correctly classified under broader food codes, state and local procurement for produce and prepared foods flows through school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, Georgia state agencies), and correctional and institutional facilities. Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas), Pacific Northwest (Oregon), Midwest (Illinois, Missouri), and Mid-Atlantic regions. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's procurement of supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, with historical value of $1.5 million); Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, covering 45 schools and distribution kitchens); and the Douglas County School System's food supply and distribution RFP (RFP 26-003, due February 18, 2026, with estimated annual expenditure of $9 million). Pursue this code only if your firm supplies organic lettuce purees specifically and can demonstrate that mislabeling of recent opportunities masks genuine demand in your target markets.
