UNSPSC 50466308: Canned or jarred japanese sweet potatoes

The variety of sweet potatoes known as japanese sweet potatoes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466308 Canned or jarred Japanese sweet potatoes is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within broader institutional food procurement but shows minimal recent direct solicitation activity specific to this item. State and local governments acquire canned and jarred Japanese sweet potatoes as part of larger consumables food buys for state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county social services operations. The code sits within institutional foodservice supply chains where public bodies consolidate dozens or hundreds of product line items—from fresh proteins and frozen vegetables to condiments and disposables—into single IFBs or RFQs rather than soliciting specialized products in isolation. Recent opportunities naming this specific commodity are absent from the dataset; instead, canned or jarred Japanese sweet potatoes would be priced as one line item among 20 to 400 line items in comprehensive foodservice solicitations issued by state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, state departments of corrections, and school nutrition programs across multiple states.

Recent representative foodservice solicitations issued by Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state supported living centers (IFB HHS0017872 due August 25, 2026, and IFB HHS0018082 due October 23, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned tomatoes IFB S2910000017145 due June 19, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners for senior services (IWQ 140229 due October 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia (IFB #26271 due June 15, 2026), and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia (sealed bid due June 5, 2026) collectively demonstrate that state health departments, county social services, and school districts in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon are the primary active buyers. These jurisdictions typically solicit foodservice commodities on six-month to annual cycles with delivery to central distribution centers or multiple school and facility locations, FOB Destination with freight prepaid, and responses due within 30 to 60 days of posting. Specific opportunities naming canned or jarred Japanese sweet potatoes do not appear in recent postings; vendors pursuing this code should monitor broader institutional food RFQs and IFBs from state supported living centers, correctional food service procurements, and school nutrition programs rather than expect standalone solicitations for this item.
