UNSPSC 50495430: Organic pequin pepper purees

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

UNSPSC 50495430 Organic pequin pepper purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's narrow scope — a single specialized ingredient — contrasts sharply with the actual food procurements posted under this category code, which center on broad institutional food service contracts spanning fresh produce, proteins, dairy, condiments, and consumable supplies rather than organic pequin pepper purees as a line item or core deliverable. The few opportunities tagged to this code show no evidence of organic pepper purees being solicited as a standalone product or component. State and local procurement offices across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois have instead issued food-service IFBs, RFQs, and IWQs for volume purchasing of commodity ingredients and prepared items to feed incarcerated populations, supported living center residents, school students, and senior-service populations, but organic pequin pepper purees do not appear in any of the available bid specifications or line-item rosters.

The issuing bodies represent diverse institutional categories — Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice facilities, Georgia school districts and county social-services departments, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and Illinois state agencies — but none of the recent opportunities name organic pequin pepper purees as a requirement. A representative solicitation is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 (response due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods and supplies at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, which specifies 22 line items including sauces, prepared proteins, and food service supplies with no reference to organic pepper purees. Similarly, the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 (response due June 19, 2026) solicited 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes, and Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 (response due October 19, 2026) requested shelf-stable items including peanut butter, jelly, and canned proteins — none of which involve the specialty ingredient this code describes. The code shows little relevant recent activity.
