UNSPSC 50485603: Round red potato purees

The variety of potatoes known as round red potatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50485603 Round red potato purees, a Commodity code, does not see recent state and local procurement activity that matches its narrow scope. Of the 21 recent opportunities tagged to this code in the dataset, none explicitly solicit round red potato purees or any potato puree product. Instead, the opportunities span broad food service procurement—weekly food orders at state veteran homes, food supply for correctional facilities, state hospitals, school nutrition programs, and produce purchases for school districts—across RFQ, RFB, IFB, and RFP notice types. The tagged opportunities cover general grocery items, fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, and dairy products for institutional food service rather than a specialized commodity like potato purees.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Illinois, Texas, Oregon), county school systems (Muscogee, Liberty, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas, Burke County in Georgia; Rockwood in Missouri), state correctional and health agencies (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections), and school nutrition programs within individual districts. The geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumable products with an estimated $1.5 million historical value posted June 11, 2026, response due July 13, 2026; Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for food products with quarterly pricing options, response due June 15, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB for 76+ items across 45 schools, response due April 27, 2026; and Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution to serve 32 schools with an estimated $9 million annual expenditure, response due February 18, 2026. The code's assignment to these opportunities appears misaligned with its commodity definition, and business development professionals evaluating this code should verify current sourcing demand for actual potato puree products through direct market research rather than rely on this procurement record.
