UNSPSC 50495805: Organic golden gourmet shallot purees

The variety of organic shallots known as organic golden gourmet shallots which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50495805 Organic golden gourmet shallot purees is a Commodity code that in practice covers a much broader range of shelf-stable and prepared food products than its specific name suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing bulk consumables for institutional food service — including prepared entrees, frozen specialty items, canned vegetables, proteins, dairy products, condiments, and food service supplies such as containers, napkins, and straws — rather than gourmet shallot purees specifically. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments operating state supported living centers and state hospitals, county governments managing senior services and community nutrition programs, school districts running child nutrition programs across multiple campuses, state correctional departments, and state agencies operating institutional cafeterias. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and its subordinate state supported living centers appear as repeat buyers; Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) and Gwinnett County also show recent solicitation activity.

Recent opportunities demonstrate geographic spread across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for food and consumables at state supported living centers and state hospitals, including HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, IFB, due October 23, 2026), HHS0017872 (Lufkin, fiscal year 2027, due August 25, 2026), and HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, IFB, due July 13, 2026) with historical annual value around $1.5 million. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners solicited approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items under IWQ 140229 (informal written quotes, due October 19, 2026). Ben Hill County Schools sought comprehensive food procurement under IFB #26271 (sealed bids, due June 15, 2026) with Buy American Act requirements. Burke County Public Schools in Waynesboro, Georgia issued bids for school nutrition across five schools (due June 5, 2026, opened June 8, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections requested 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (IFB, due June 19, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, solicited approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026). No recent opportunities directly matching organic golden gourmet shallot purees have been identified; the code appears to serve as a catch-all category for institutional food service consumables broadly.
