UNSPSC 50476319: Canned or jarred organic redglow sweet potatoes

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

UNSPSC 50476319 Canned or jarred organic redglow sweet potatoes is a Commodity-level code that in practice covers shelf-stable canned and jarred produce — primarily standard canned vegetables and fruits rather than the organic redglow sweet potatoes named in the code taxonomy. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying bulk consumable foods for institutional food service operations, including cafeterias, canteens, and on-campus dining at state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. The recent opportunities show state departments, county governments, and independent school districts issuing IFBs and informal written quotes for dozens to hundreds of line items spanning canned vegetables, fruits, proteins, condiments, and related food service supplies with annual volumes in the hundreds to thousands of cases. Issuing bodies vary widely across facility types and jurisdictions, with no single buyer dominating the code's recent activity.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for food and consumable products serving statewide supported living centers and state hospitals — including HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, IFB, due October 23, 2026), HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, IFB, due July 13, 2026), and HHS0016792V2 (supplemental food and consumables statewide, IFB, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years, due March 19, 2026). Georgia school districts and Gwinnett County are also active — Burke County Public Schools (School Nutrition Food Bid, sealed bid, due June 5, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools (Food Bid IFB, sealed bid, due June 15, 2026), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products, informal written quote, due October 19, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections posted a large canned-tomato procurement (7,616 cases, bid due June 19, 2026). Smaller and mid-sized school districts and county agencies post regularly under the code; responses typically require three verifiable references, proof of liability insurance, and compliance with Buy American, debarment, E-Verify, and HACCP requirements.
