UNSPSC 50476707: Canned or jarred organic lesser yams

The variety of organic yams known as organic lesser yams that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50476707 Canned or jarred organic lesser yams is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct state and local solicitation activity under its specific scope; the recent opportunities block shows no state or local bids explicitly requesting canned or jarred organic lesser yams as a line item. The code's nominal scope—shelf-stable, canned or jarred tuber products—sits within a broader category of canned vegetables and food staples that state and local procurement offices acquire for institutional food service, but the organic lesser yam specification is not supported by posted solicitations. When canned or jarred vegetables appear in recent state and local food service bids, they are typically general commodity categories (canned tomatoes, canned proteins, canned vegetables without organic designation) rather than a specific lesser yam product line.

The recent opportunities block documents multiple institutional food service procurements across Texas Health and Human Services Commission supported living centers, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Illinois state agencies, and other state and local entities posting between May and October 2026. These solicitations (IFBs, RFQs, and ITBs) solicit hundreds of food line items including canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, and supplies for institutional cafeteria and canteen operations, but none isolate canned or jarred organic lesser yams as a distinct procurement category. The activities are concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional state-level food service activity in Illinois. No representative recent opportunity under this code can be named; pursue this code only if direct outreach to institutional food service buyers reveals organic lesser yam demand, or if your firm intends to bid general canned-vegetable or institutional-food-distribution lots where organic yams might appear as a minor line item within broader commodity categories.
