UNSPSC 50496311: Organic green tomato purees

The variety of organic tomates known as organic green tomatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50496311 Organic green tomato purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually purchasing broad categories of food products for institutional food service — primarily shelf-stable packaged goods, fresh and frozen proteins, dairy, produce, condiments, and food service supplies — rather than organic green tomato purees specifically. Recent opportunities show schools, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and county social services procuring hundreds of line items per solicitation, with delivery to multiple sites and strict compliance requirements including USDA grades, HACCP plans, Buy American provisions, and food safety certifications. The issuing bodies span school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), state health and human services departments (Texas HHSC, Georgia state nutrition programs, Illinois state food service), state corrections departments (Texas TDCJ, Oregon DOC), and county social services (Gwinnett County). Pricing typically includes firm, fixed unit rates with transportation prepaid to point of consumption, F.O.B. Destination; contract terms run 12 months with renewal options; and vendors must meet insurance, debarment, E-Verify, and cybersecurity compliance requirements.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple solicitations — IFB HHS0017872 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, August 2026, 20 line items, due August 25); IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin canteen and campus, October 2026, 22 line items, due October 23); and IFB HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, June 2026, due July 11, prior-period value $1.5 million). Georgia school districts have posted multiple food bids — Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, May 2026, due June 15, hundreds of line items across produce, meat, dairy, seasonings, and supplies); Burke County Public Schools (May 2026, due June 5, nearly 400 line items, five school sites). Oregon Department of Corrections issued IFB S2910000017145 for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 2026, due June 19, previous purchase $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes (IWQ 140229, October 2026, due October 19, 35 line items of shelf-stable products for Senior Services). The Texas Comptroller's office solicited cafeteria food products (IFB 304T-26-300CF, May 2026, extended to May 4, 382 line items for TDCJ warehouse distribution across five geographic areas). The code shows little evidence of organic-specific sourcing in current state and local activity.
