The variety of sweet potatoes known as japanese sweet potatoes which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50486308 Japanese sweet potato purees is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure as a component of broader food supply contracts for institutional cafeterias, school nutrition programs, and state-facility foodservice operations. The code appears infrequently in recent solicitations; the most recent opportunities show food procurement activity concentrated in school districts and state agencies purchasing aggregated grocery and produce line items rather than sweet potato purees as a discrete item. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections), and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home). Activity spans multiple states including Georgia, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, Illinois, and Virginia, with particularly dense recent procurement from Georgia school districts and Texas state facilities.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center and subordinate Department of State Health Services facilities (IFB, due July 13, 2026, historical value $1.5 million annually); Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across multiple categories including fresh and frozen produce, proteins, and dairy items for four school locations (IFB, due June 15, 2026); Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 delivery to 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus seven distribution kitchens (IFB, due April 27, 2026); and Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 across 32 schools serving 25,500 students (RFP, due February 18, 2026).
