UNSPSC 50456315: Frozen organic orange sweet potatoes

The variety of organic sweet potatoes known as organic orange sweet potatoes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50456315 Frozen organic orange sweet potatoes is a Commodity code that covers specialized frozen produce items for institutional and foodservice use. State and local procurement under this code focuses on bulk frozen vegetable products for school nutrition programs, senior services, and county food assistance operations. The solicitations show demand for USDA-compliant produce meeting specific quality, labeling, and delivery standards — items must arrive new and properly labeled, with compliance to food safety protocols including HACCP plans, biosecurity documentation, and product-recall procedures. Issuing bodies include county governments managing senior services and county purchasing operations, state-level food procurement offices, and school districts operating child nutrition programs across multiple school sites. The code sees activity from purchasing entities managing high-volume institutional foodservice operations that source through line-item competitive bidding rather than blanket agreements.

Georgia dominates the recent activity, with three posted opportunities spanning Gwinnett County (IWQ 140229 Purchase of Food Items, IWQ RFQ due October 19, 2026), the State of Georgia (food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid, June 22, 2026), and Early County Board of Education (FY27 Food Bid line-item bid for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program products, June 8, 2026). The Early County solicitation explicitly emphasizes domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with pricing firm for 15 days from award and escalation requests reviewed on a six-month basis against USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks. Delivery windows are tight — Gwinnett County requires delivery within 72 hours of order receipt when possible to the Senior Services Center, and Early County requires 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Monday–Friday delivery with no separate fuel charges included in pricing. Award is typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on unit-of-measure calculations.
