UNSPSC 50415605: Organic purple potatoes

The variety of organic potatoes known as organic purple potatoes

UNSPSC 50415605 Organic purple potatoes, a Commodity code, spans the procurement of fresh produce — specifically organic varieties — by state and local authorities for food service operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy fresh fruits and vegetables for institutional cafeterias, parks concession operations, healthcare facilities, and school meal programs. The issuing bodies span school districts, county park and recreation departments, health care coalitions, and state procurement offices. Food service is the primary end use, with compliance to food safety standards, USDA sourcing preferences, and product freshness guarantees common requirements across solicitations.
