UNSPSC 50151515: Soy milk

A type of beverage that is the extract of soybean or soybean processed food or is the sterilized or sanitized liquid by adding different food or food additives thereto.

UNSPSC 50151515 Soy milk is a Commodity code that captures infant formula, dairy products, and other milk and soy-based beverages procured by state health and human services agencies, school nutrition programs, and institutional food service operations. State and local governments buy soy milk primarily as a component of larger food and nutrition contracts — notably WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) formula rebate programs, school lunch procurement supporting National School Lunch Program compliance, and food service supply for state institutional facilities. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission dominates recent activity under this code, appearing as the issuing body across multiple solicitations including competitive infant formula rebate contracting and recurring groceries procurement for state hospital operations. School districts also solicit under the code, with the Bridgeport Board of Education recently procuring grocery items including soy-based dairy products for the National School Lunch Program.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Connecticut, Georgia, and Minnesota through Oklahoma, reflecting geographic diversity in state and local nutrition programs. The most visible recent solicitation is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016707 for WIC Infant Formula Rebate, posted October 14, 2026, with bids due January 11, 2027, which anticipates awarding up to two contracts—one for milk-based and one for soy-based infant formula—or a single contract covering both, serving approximately 207,707 monthly WIC participants across Texas, Minnesota, Iowa, and the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. A second active Texas procurement is IFB HHS0017660V2 for FY27 Groceries for Big Spring State Hospital, posted August 13, 2026 with bids due August 28, 2026, covering approximately 100 line items of food and supplies with a prior-year spend baseline of $32,226.36. The City of Bridgeport Board of Education issued IFB BNB052266 on June 30, 2026, for grocery items spanning over 1,100 line items supporting the National School Lunch Program, with firm fixed pricing and Net 45 payment terms. The State of Georgia posted PE55645NONST2026000000009 on May 15, 2026, for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date.
