UNSPSC 50476700: Canned or jarred organic yams

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

UNSPSC 50476700 Canned or jarred organic yams, a Class code, does not appear in state and local procurement activity within the recent opportunities block. The code's nominal scope — preserved organic yams — remains unmatched by any of the sixteen solicitations posted between January and June 2026, which focus instead on broad grocery procurement (including canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive food service supply) for institutional buyers such as school districts, state corrections facilities, and state health and human services agencies. The mismatch suggests either that canned organic yams are sourced as line items within larger commodity contracts rather than as standalone procurements, or that demand for this specific product category is not presently generating dedicated solicitations at the state and local level.

The active procurement pattern under related codes shows issuing-body concentration among K–12 school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state agencies including the Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and the Illinois Veterans Home, with geographic activity spanning the South (Georgia, Texas), the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois), and Mid-Atlantic (Virginia). Representative opportunities include Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products due July 13, 2026, scoping 210 line items with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016405 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026; and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 due April 27, 2026, requiring weekly delivery to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens across the district.
