UNSPSC 50495401: Organic ajies pepper purees

The variety of organic peppers known as organic ajies peppers which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50495401 Organic ajies pepper purees (Commodity) covers prepared pepper condiments and sauce bases that state and local governments procure for food service operations. Recent solicitations show the code reflects a narrow product category with limited direct demand signals; the opportunities tagged under this code involve broad food-service procurement where pepper purees or hot sauces appear as line items within larger consumables bundles rather than as standalone primary procurements. State and local issuing bodies—primarily state health and human services agencies operating institutional facilities, county and municipal school districts, and state correctional and corrections departments—source food products including condiments through comprehensive competitive bids for cafeteria, kitchen, and food-service supply contracts. The issuing-body mix tilts toward Texas agencies (Health and Human Services Commission, Department of Criminal Justice, Comptroller of Public Accounts), which appear multiple times in recent activity, alongside Georgia school districts and counties, Oregon state agencies, and Illinois. The scope of work under the code, when explicitly matched, involves ingredient-level condiments and prepared sauces for mass food service—items typically embedded in larger line-item schedules rather than procured in isolation.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), which references NIGP line items 385, 390, 380, and 393 for food service supply categories encompassing condiments and sauces; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (response due May 4, 2026), covering approximately 382 line items including condiments and specialty foods; and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for school food products across four facilities (bids due June 15, 2026), which specifies seasonings and condiments among dozens of categories. The Oregon Department of Corrections procurement for canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) and a Georgia food-supplies solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026) round out the geographic spread. Pepper purees specifically are rarely called out as line items; when they appear, they are typically priced as secondary or bulk-ingredient additions to larger sauce or condiment categories, reflecting modest per-unit volumes within institutional food-service budgets.
