About UNSPSC 50496008

UNSPSC 50496008 Organic orach spinach purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement record shows little activity specifically tied to this product. The code's abstract scope—organic leafy-green purees—diverges sharply from the food service solicitations actually posted under it. Recent opportunities tagged with this code are broadly for shelf-stable and prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, canned goods, proteins, and consumables for institutional food service, not spinach purees in particular. State and local governments buying under this code jurisdiction include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (operating state supported living centers), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (senior services), Oregon Department of Corrections, school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and other state and county food-service operations. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with scattered solicitations in Illinois.

Representative recent opportunities show the actual scope of institutional food procurement. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026, for consumables and prepared foods (french fries, chicken wings, sauces, food service supplies) for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes under IWQ 140229 on October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta) for senior services. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing Division solicited bids for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes on June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026. Ben Hill County Schools posted an IFB on May 19, 2026, due June 15, 2026, for a comprehensive food bid spanning fresh produce, meat, seafood, dairy, and dry goods across four school locations. These solicitations reflect routine institutional food supply operations, not the organic puree specialty product the code nominally describes, suggesting misclassification in the posting process rather than genuine market demand for organic orach spinach purees from state and local buyers.
