UNSPSC 50475608: Canned or jarred organic specialty potatoes

The variety of organic potatoes known as organic specialty potatoes that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475608 Canned or jarred organic specialty potatoes is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable potato products procured by state and local agencies for institutional food service. Recent state and local solicitations show that this code appears within broader consumables and food-product procurement actions at state agencies, county and city governments, and school districts, where canned or jarred potatoes are bundled as line items within larger food-supply contracts serving cafeterias, dining facilities, and food-service operations. The work being solicited is the supply and delivery of shelf-stable prepared or preserved potatoes—typically canned or jarred formats such as whole potatoes, diced potatoes, or specialty potato preparations—to meet institutional menus and food-service requirements. Issuing bodies span state health and human services agencies operating state-supported living centers and hospitals, county and municipal purchasing divisions, school nutrition programs, state corrections departments, and other institutional food-service programs. The agencies and districts soliciting under this code are repeat purchasers; Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears in multiple recent opportunities, as do Georgia and Oregon purchasing offices.

Recent activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 in October 2026 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026, encompassing prepared potato products as one line item among 22 total food and supply items; a similar Texas HHS solicitation (HHS0017449) for the El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, included food and consumables with an estimated historical spend of $1.5 million.
