UNSPSC 50466700: Canned or jarred yams

The type of vegetable known as yams that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466700 Canned or jarred yams, a Class code, does not appear in the recent state and local contract opportunities provided. The code represents a narrow commodity within preserved vegetable products, yet recent solicitations under this UNSPSC show no procurement activity specifically for canned or jarred yams.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code span food procurement across multiple issuing bodies—state facilities (Illinois Veterans Home, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Muscogee County School District), and county governments (Ben Hill County, Texas TDCJ facilities)—but they document solicitations for comprehensive grocery and produce lines, fresh and frozen vegetables, canned tomatoes and tomato paste, fresh produce and eggs, and broad food service supply contracts. The geographic spread includes recent activity in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Virginia, Illinois, and Missouri. None of the named opportunities isolate demand for canned or jarred yams as a distinct line item or commodity. Unless a vendor is pursuing large master grocery or food supply contracts that include yams as a subordinate component within broader vegetable categories, this code presents minimal direct targeting opportunity. Firms positioned to win state and local food service work may encounter yam procurement as a line item within IFBs for school nutrition or institutional feeding, but the code does not show the focused, recurring procurement activity typical of higher-demand preserved commodities.
