UNSPSC 50495804: Organic giant yellow improved shallot purees

The variety of organic shallots known as organic giant yellow improved shallots which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50495804 Organic giant yellow improved shallot purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity directly under this narrow specification. State and local governments soliciting under related food-supply codes are procuring broad categories of fresh produce, frozen and canned vegetables, proteins, dairy products, and prepared foods to support school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and state supported living centers. The issuing bodies span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Georgia), and county school nutrition programs across multiple states. The work being solicited is high-volume food procurement with brand-specific or approved-equivalent sourcing, firm fixed pricing, and multi-year contracts with renewal options.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with prior historical value of $1.5 million annually), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for a Master Grocery K-12 contract serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). The Texas HHSC procurement HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers carried a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. School districts uniformly require Buy American compliance, HACCP food safety plans, firm pricing with limited escalation tied to verifiable indices, and weekly or scheduled deliveries to multiple school sites. Shallot purees as a standalone commodity do not appear in the recent opportunities reviewed; vendors supplying this product would need to position it within broader fresh or specialty vegetable supply agreements or as a component of prepared-food offerings to school nutrition programs.
