UNSPSC 50496201: Organic beauregard sweet potato purees

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

UNSPSC 50496201 Organic beauregard sweet potato purees is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, encompasses a broader range of food products than the code name alone suggests. State and local governments are soliciting under this code primarily for shelf-stable and prepared food items to supply institutional food services—state supported living centers, state hospitals, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services centers. The recent opportunities show procurement of prepared foods (french fries, hashbrown patties, chicken wings, proteins, canned vegetables, canned tomatoes, dairy products, condiments, and grains), fresh and frozen produce, and food service consumables (containers, napkins, straws, gloves). The issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services agencies, state correctional and education departments, county government, and independent school districts. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears multiple times as a repeat buyer for state supported living center supply contracts, as do Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) and state procurement divisions (Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of Corrections proxy, Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ).

Activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Recent representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods (prepared foods and food service supplies) at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center with bids due October 23, 2026; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces) due October 19, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (USDA Grade B or better) due June 19, 2026 with a previous purchase at $13.75 per case; and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for food products and cafeteria supplies across four school locations due June 15, 2026 with Buy American Act requirements and HACCP compliance mandated. The Texas HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center IFB (HHS0017449) referenced a prior-period historical monetary value of $1.5 million, and the supplemental food procurement (HHS0016792v2) carried a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years. Most solicitations emphasize firm, fixed pricing with FOB Destination delivery, multi-location distribution, compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and performance verification through references and past vendor performance tracking.
