UNSPSC 50496320: Organic siberia tomato purees

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

UNSPSC 50496320 Organic siberia tomato purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments procuring under this code buy canned and processed tomato products—primarily standard canned tomatoes in various cuts (whole, diced, sliced, stewed, halved) and tomato paste supplied in institutional volumes to correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and related food service operations. The recent solicitation activity shows minimal direct procurement of the coded product type; instead, jurisdictions are buying broader food categories that incidentally include tomato products as line items within larger food supply RFPs and IFBs. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two recent bids for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases per solicitation) and tomato paste (approximately 1,904 cases), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission has included tomato-based products within larger supplemental food procurements for state hospitals and supported living centers. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia likewise incorporate canned tomatoes and tomato products into master food procurement contracts covering hundreds of line items. The issuing bodies are primarily state correctional systems, state health and human services agencies, and school districts sourcing food for institutional food service operations.

Activity concentrates in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, with Georgia showing the heaviest recent volume through school district procurements and the Douglas County cooperative procurement. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued Invitation to Bid S2910000016089 for approximately 1,904 cases of tomato paste (due March 9, 2026) and ITB S2910000015837 for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes in mixed cuts (due February 9, 2026), both awarded to the lowest responsive bidder per line item. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792 (due February 23, 2026, later extended to March 19, 2026 in a subsequent version) encompasses 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables including tomato-based products for statewide hospital and supported living center distribution, with a maximum potential three-year value of $4.5 million and award made on best-value terms to single or multiple vendors. School nutrition procurements across Georgia—including Liberty County Board of Education (IFB due April 29, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017 due April 27, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid 26-34 due April 23, 2026)—include canned tomatoes as component line items within broader fresh produce, grocery, and food supply contracts. The code shows routine activity but limited vertical specialization; tomato products appear as supporting items within larger institutional food buys rather than as primary procurement drivers.
