UNSPSC 50446700: Frozen yams

The type of vegetable known as yams that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50446700 Frozen yams, a Class code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source records fourteen recent food-related solicitations issued between May 2026 and October 2026 by school districts, county correctional facilities, state departments, and state supported living centers—none of which name frozen yams as a line item or commodity. Recent opportunities in this family span frozen vegetables broadly (assorted blends, corn, green beans, broccoli) and comprehensive grocery procurements that include frozen produce categories, but frozen yams specifically are absent from all posted bid documents, informal quotes, and IFB/RFQ activity reviewed.

The code's nominal scope—frozen yams as a discrete commodity—does not align with the pattern of what state and local governments are actually buying under frozen-vegetable and institutional-food codes. Procurement activity in related commodity space (UNSPSC 50446600 and adjacent codes) shows state departments of corrections in Oregon and Texas, state supported living centers in Texas, county correctional facilities in Pennsylvania, and school districts across Georgia purchasing frozen vegetables in bulk for institutional feeding on quarterly or annual contracts, typically through IFB or ITB with responses required within 30 to 60 days. None of these solicitations itemize yams as a standalone line. Unless frozen yams appear as a component within broader "assorted" or "mixed vegetable" bundles that are not disaggregated in the public solicitation text, this code presents no active pursuit opportunity at the state and local level as of October 2026.
