UNSPSC 50486315: Orange sweet potato purees

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

UNSPSC 50486315 Orange sweet potato purees (Commodity) encompasses fruit and vegetable purees that state and local government food service operations procure for institutional meal programs, though recent solicitations under this specific code show minimal activity. The code sits within the broader family of prepared vegetable and fruit products and reflects what state agencies, school districts, and correctional facilities source when purchasing pre-processed produce in bulk form for kitchen operations.

State and local purchasing bodies active in the broader produce and food-service category—including school districts, departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and veterans homes across multiple states—are soliciting fresh produce, canned goods, frozen vegetables, and prepared food items at high frequency, but the available recent opportunities do not contain any explicit solicitations referencing orange sweet potato purees by UNSPSC code or product name. The most recent opportunities in the source block focus on canned tomatoes (Oregon Department of Corrections, S2910000016405, ITB with response due March 9, 2026), fresh produce and eggs (Douglas County School System, RFP SN 26-004 with response due March 4, 2026), comprehensive grocery procurement (Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri, IFB with response due April 29, 2026), and school nutrition food bids across Georgia, Texas, Illinois, and Virginia spanning March through June 2026. No recent opportunities explicitly name orange sweet potato purees as a line item or specify this commodity code. Given the absence of recent solicitation data directly supporting this code, business development professionals should monitor state and local RFPs targeting school nutrition programs, state hospital and residential facility food service, and corrections food service for instances where purees, specialty produce items, or prepared vegetable components appear in bid documents; these categories may be tagged under this code despite the current lack of visible activity in procurement notices.
