UNSPSC 50476300: Canned or jarred organic sweet potatoes

The type of organic vegetable known as organic sweet potatoes that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476300 Canned or jarred organic sweet potatoes is a Class code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable canned and jarred vegetable products, primarily to support institutional food service operations at state facilities, county senior centers, school nutrition programs, and correctional institutions. Recent opportunities show that this code captures broad categories of canned and jarred food items—not organic sweet potatoes exclusively—solicited by health and human services agencies, corrections departments, school districts, and county governments. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple invitations for consumable food products serving state supported living centers, the Oregon Department of Corrections has solicited canned tomatoes in quantity, and school districts in Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) have bid comprehensive food service contracts encompassing dozens of canned vegetable and fruit line items. Issuing bodies span state health and corrections agencies, county nutrition and community services departments, independent school districts, and multi-facility state-operated living centers, with Texas and Georgia showing the heaviest recent activity.

Representative recent opportunities include an IFB from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with annual estimated quantities from 1 to 24 cases per item and F.O.B. Destination delivery within seven days of order; an informal written quote (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026) from Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners purchasing approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned proteins, vegetables, and sauces for the Department of Community Services; and an IFB from the Oregon Department of Corrections (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better, with pricing from the prior purchase at $13.75 per case. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional solicitations posted by Illinois and Ben Hill County and Burke County school districts in Georgia within the last five months.
