UNSPSC 50496849: Organic paprika purees

The type of organic vegetable known as organic paprika which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50496849 Organic paprika purees, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code represent general food service contracting for state institutions, county senior services, school nutrition programs, and correctional facilities — spanning prepared proteins, frozen vegetables, canned goods, dairy products, condiments, and food service supplies — but none of the detailed line-item scopes or specifications mention organic paprika purees or paprika-based products specifically. The issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions, county commissioners' offices, school districts, and state departments of corrections across multiple states, but the code does not capture a meaningful product category within their actual procurements.

Geographic activity in the recent opportunities centers on Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Texas Comptroller solicitations), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections), with smaller activity noted in Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). The mismatch between the code's paprika-puree designation and the actual procurement activity — which focuses on bulk commodity foods and institutional food service — suggests this code may be incorrectly applied in the source data or that organic paprika purees represent a negligible line item within broader food service buys.
