UNSPSC 50496119: Organic round squash purees

The variety of organic summer squashes and organic summer pumpkins known as organic round squash which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50496119 Organic round squash purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's scope—specialized organic vegetable purees for food service and institutional use—diverges sharply from the actual buying pattern under this taxonomy, which reflects broad-based school nutrition and institutional food service procurement covering hundreds of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, grains, condiments, and prepared foods. Recent opportunities tagged to food service codes show substantial volume in fresh and frozen produce, canned goods, and commodity proteins, but no recent solicitations isolate organic round squash purees as a distinct line item or procurement focus.

The issuing bodies pursuing food service contracts under this code tier are predominantly school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Douglas County Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County Schools, and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools) and state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, and Georgia Department of Corrections). Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, Texas) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with secondary activity in the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, seeking a broad commodity mix at $1.5 million historical value; the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services RFQ for grocery items effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, encompassing over 900 line items; and the Douglas County School System RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services with estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 across 32 schools. None of these opportunities highlight organic round squash purees as a material purchase category or line item.
