UNSPSC 50496402: Organic golden ball turnip purees

The variety of organic turnips known as organic golden ball turnips which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50496402 Organic golden ball turnip purees (Commodity) does not see relevant recent state and local procurement activity—the code's nominal scope (specialty organic root vegetable purees) does not match the actual buying under posted opportunities. Food service procurement at the state and local level remains brisk across produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared items, but the recent opportunities tagged to this code in the source block comprise general food service RFPs and IFBs for school districts, state institutions, and corrections facilities; none name or reference turnip purees, whether organic or conventional. The opportunities show institutional food service buyers—Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, school nutrition programs in Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, and county school systems—soliciting weekly or annual food contracts with hundreds of line items spanning fresh produce, canned goods, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and consumables.

The geographic spread of recent activity is broad: Texas (HHSC facilities statewide, TDCJ prison cafeterias), Georgia (Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County school districts), Oregon (ODOC), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Illinois (IVHQ in Quincy), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative opportunities include the Texas HHSC supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with approximately $1.5 million in prior-period volume; the Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 IFB (2000004323, due April 27, 2026) spanning 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens; and the Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items solicitation (due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items for the 2026–27 school year. If pursuing turnip purées or specialty vegetable preparations at state or local institutional food service, consider piggybacking existing cooperative purchasing agreements or targeting RFP addenda rather than relying on this commodity code.
