UNSPSC 50496214: Organic okinawan sweet potato purees

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

UNSPSC 50496214 Organic okinawan sweet potato purees (Commodity) sees minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specialized produce product, but the recent opportunities sourced under this code show no purchases of organic Okinawan sweet potato purees specifically. Instead, the posted solicitations span broad food and consumables procurement for institutional food service — state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services — covering fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, canned goods, and food service supplies in general categories rather than named specialty items. When state and local agencies procure food service products, they typically use broader commodity codes and specify items within line-item detail rather than relying on narrowly defined UNSPSC codes tied to specific produce varieties.

The issuing bodies include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (posting multiple IFBs for state-supported living center supply), the Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Geographic activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on the recent postings, though the sample size is small. Representative recent opportunities 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, covering 210 line items of general food products with a three-year maximum potential value of $4.5 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026); and Ben Hill County Schools' comprehensive school nutrition food bid (due June 15, 2026, covering hundreds of line items across multiple food categories). The code itself does not appear to correspond meaningfully to any of the actively solicited work, and vendors pursuing food service supply contracts should expect to compete on broader commodity categories with line-item specification rather than on the named specialty product.
