UNSPSC 50466312: Canned or jarred nemagold sweet potatoes

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

UNSPSC 50466312 Canned or jarred nemagold sweet potatoes is a Commodity code that captures narrow segments of state and local institutional food procurement—specifically, preserved sweet potato products for school nutrition programs, state-supported living facilities, corrections departments, and veterans' homes. Recent opportunities show canned and jarred sweet potatoes are sourced alongside broader food supply contracts rather than as standalone line items; they appear embedded within master grocery bids, supplemental food procurements, and quarterly food orders covering dozens or hundreds of product lines for institutional kitchens. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state supported living centers and state hospitals), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state veterans' agencies (Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy). School districts and state institutional foodservice operations dominate the recent activity.

Recent opportunities show geographic spread across Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, and Georgia, with school nutrition programs representing the most consistent buyer segment. Representative recent solicitations include the State of Illinois issuing RFQ 27497DVAQUINCB52821 for FY-27 IVHQ Quarterly Weekly Food Orders due June 26, 2026, covering brand-specific or equivalent food items including sweet potatoes; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with proposals due July 13, 2026 under a $1.5 million guideline value; and Ben Hill County Schools issuing IFB #26271 for comprehensive school nutrition food products due June 15, 2026, requiring Buy American Act compliance and HACCP plans. Fairfax County Public Schools issued IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 products due April 27, 2026, serving 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens with weekly deliveries. The code sees consistent quarterly and annual renewal cycles aligned with school fiscal years (typically July 1 through June 30) and state agency budget periods, with most recent postings from February through June 2026. Pricing typically remains firm for initial contract periods with adjustments tied to USDA commodity indexes or Consumer Price Index data, and awards generally flow to lowest responsive, responsible bidders meeting specification compliance and service-level requirements.
