UNSPSC 50151519: Soya bean oil

Vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the soybean. It is one of the most widely consumed cooking oils and the second most consumed vegetable oil.

UNSPSC 50151519 Soya bean oil (Commodity) is not clearly reflected in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged with this code cover broad food and consumable products for correctional facilities, state health services centers, and school districts — including proteins, dairy, grains, produce, and prepared entrees — but soya bean oil does not appear as a distinct line item or focus area in any of the solicitations reviewed.

The tagged opportunities span state health and human services departments (Texas), state correctional and warehouse procurement (Texas), school districts (Fairfax County, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI, Missouri; Douglas County, Georgia), and special-purpose buying cooperatives (Georgia Educational Consortium). Recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB 304T26300CF (extended to May 4, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026), Rockwood School District's child nutrition grocery items solicitation (due April 29, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026). The code shows activity primarily in Texas and Georgia, with secondary presence in Virginia and Missouri. However, because the recent opportunities do not explicitly reference soya bean oil as a procured item, the alignment between this Commodity code and what state and local governments are actually buying under it remains unclear.
