UNSPSC 50446708: Frozen potato yams

The variety of yams known as potato yams that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50446708 Frozen potato yams (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—frozen yam products—diverges from what is actually being solicited under related frozen-vegetable and frozen-potato categories that state and local buyers are actively pursuing.

The recent opportunities block shows substantial activity in adjacent commodity codes for frozen vegetables, frozen potatoes (french fries, wedges, tater tots), and fresh produce across multiple issuing bodies. Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple ITBs for frozen corn, frozen assorted vegetables, and frozen potato products (S2910000017451, S2910000017439, S2910000016589, S2910000016558, and S2910000016071), all due in late June or early July 2026 with state preferences for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-headquartered vendors. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Virginia are issuing competitive food procurement solicitations that bundle frozen vegetables, frozen potatoes, and fresh produce as part of larger child nutrition contracts. State agencies and correctional facilities in Texas, New Jersey, and Illinois are also seeking frozen vegetable and frozen-produce supplies. The geographic spread is nationwide, with notable clusters in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida), the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), the Mid-Atlantic (Pennsylvania), and Texas. However, the procurement records do not surface any bids specifically tagged to UNSPSC 50446708 or explicitly naming frozen yams as a line item. The code appears dormant in current state and local practice, with buying activity concentrated instead on more common frozen-vegetable varieties (corn, carrots, mixed vegetables, broccoli, green beans) and frozen-potato products (fries, wedges, tater tots) that dominate institutional food service procurement for schools, correctional facilities, and state agencies.
