UNSPSC 50416309: Organic jersey sweet potatoes

The variety of organic sweet potatoes known as organic jersey sweet potatoes

UNSPSC 50416309 Organic jersey sweet potatoes is a Commodity code that captures fresh produce sourcing for state and local food service operations, though the recent solicitation activity under this specific code shows minimal direct demand for organic jersey sweet potatoes alone. Instead, state and local jurisdictions are procuring fresh produce as part of broader food-service contracts that bundle vegetables, fruits, and other items. The issuing bodies include school districts, county parks and recreation departments, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices. Early County Board of Education and the State of Georgia represent institutional buyers with recurring food procurement cycles; Collier County and Marion Health Care Coalition add diversity across parks, recreation, and healthcare operations. These entities treat produce sourcing as part of operational food-service supply chains rather than as stand-alone commodity purchases, emphasizing compliance with health and safety regulations, seasonal availability, quality standards, and delivery performance.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and the broader Southeast. The Early County Board of Education (Georgia) posted a comprehensive line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026, covering 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with domestic sourcing preferences and whole-grain/low-sodium emphasis. Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) due March 6, 2025, for food services at North Collier Regional Park, requiring vendors to provide diverse, high-quality food and beverage options across multiple venues, with a 10-point local-vendor preference and three-year contract term plus two one-year renewals. Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals due August 21, 2026, for fresh fruits and vegetables delivery according to operational needs. The State of Georgia requested bids for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026, with scope and pricing in attached specifications. Geographic concentration in the Southeast reflects school-district and county-level food-procurement activity; broader state purchasing also appears active in Georgia.
