UNSPSC 50495435: Organic tabasco pepper purees

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

UNSPSC 50495435 Organic tabasco pepper purees is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialized food condiments and pepper-based products for institutional food service operations. Recent state and local opportunities under this code predominantly involve broader food procurement solicitations where pepper-based condiments and sauces appear as line items within larger quarterly or annual food supply contracts rather than standalone specialty-ingredient purchases. State and local governments issuing under this code include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, and multiple Georgia and Texas school nutrition programs), state departments and agencies (Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and State of Georgia), and special-purpose public entities such as county school systems (Douglas County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Muscogee County School District). These issuing bodies solicit food products through IFBs, RFPs, and RFQs for school nutrition programs, state institutional facilities, and correctional operations, with condiments and specialty ingredients integrated into larger food baskets rather than procured in isolation.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and South—particularly Georgia (multiple county school districts and state procurement), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ institutional food service), Missouri (Rockwood School District), and Oregon (Department of Corrections)—with secondary activity in Illinois (Veterans Home) and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, covering food categories under NIGP Class/Item numbers that include condiments and specialty items; the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services' electronic bid solicitations (due April 29, 2026) for over 900 grocery line items encompassing sauces and condiments alongside proteins and produce; and the Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for school nutrition food products, due June 15, 2026, which encompasses seasonings and condiments across multiple categories. The code shows no recent isolated solicitations for organic tabasco pepper purees specifically; opportunities are tagged with this code because condiments and specialty ingredients appear as line items within broader institutional food procurement. Winning margins depend on alignment with larger food-service contracts, compliance with Buy American provisions and USDA standards, and competitive pricing within the full procurement context.
