UNSPSC 50476308: Canned or jarred organic japanese sweet potatoes

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

UNSPSC 50476308 Canned or jarred organic Japanese sweet potatoes is a Commodity code covering processed sweet potato products that state and local governments buy for institutional food service—primarily for state health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, school districts, and county nutrition programs. The recent solicitations show minimal direct procurement of this specific product; instead, the code appears in broader food-service buys where canned and jarred shelf-stable vegetables are bundled with proteins, grains, condiments, and supplies. When organic sweet potatoes do surface, they compete within line-item agricultural commodities tied to USDA sourcing standards and nutritional compliance requirements common to institutional cafeteria operations.

State and local issuing bodies pursuing canned vegetable products include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (which has posted multiple IFBs for state supported living centers and state hospitals), school districts across Georgia and elsewhere (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Oregon Department of Corrections, and county nutrition programs (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on recent postings. Representative opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumables (210 line items across frozen, refrigerated, and shelf-stable food; bid deadline March 19, 2026), the TDCJ cafeteria food products IFB 304T26300CF (approximately 382 line items across proteins and vegetables; due May 4, 2026), Burke County Public Schools' school nutrition food bid (nearly 400 food line items; due June 5, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomato solicitation S2910000017145 (7,616 cases; due June 19, 2026). These solicitations emphasize USDA grade compliance, 12-month minimum shelf life, sodium limits, and delivery within 7–30 days to centralized distribution centers or multiple school sites, with pricing on an FOB Destination basis inclusive of freight.
