UNSPSC 50496209: Organic jersey sweet potato purees

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

UNSPSC 50496209 Organic jersey sweet potato purees, a Commodity code, covers specialized food products that state and local government procurement offices are acquiring through limited recent activity. The code appears underutilized relative to the broader categories of prepared foods and produce that state agencies, school districts, and specialized facilities actually procure; recent opportunities show no direct solicitations for organic jersey sweet potatoes or related organic purees. Instead, state and local buyers under adjacent food categories are issuing solicitations for general food supply contracts encompassing proteins, fresh produce, dairy, grains, canned goods, and prepared entrees, with organic or specialty ingredient lines representing a small subset of larger mixed-commodity buys.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under food procurement categories span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Burke County Public Schools in Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Douglas County School System in Georgia; Muscogee County School District in Georgia), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and county school nutrition programs across Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia. Geographic activity is concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia, with substantial food procurement demand from school districts and state institutional facilities. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026, estimated prior-period value $1.5 million), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, approximately 7,616 cases), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (due April 27, 2026, covering 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens), and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026, estimated annual spending $5.5 million across 30 districts). The code shows no recent direct procurement activity; organic specialty ingredients appear only as minor line items within larger food supply contracts for institutional and school nutrition programs rather than as standalone commodity buys.
