UNSPSC 50496607: Organic lesser yam purees

The variety of organic yams known as organic lesser yams which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50496607 Organic lesser yam purees, a Commodity code, sees minimal state and local procurement activity aligned with its literal scope. Recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect purchases of organic yam puree products; instead, they cover broad food service procurement for state institutions, school nutrition programs, and correctional facilities—including canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, dairy, proteins, prepared entrees, and consumable supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal product category and the actual goods being solicited suggests this Commodity designation is either underutilized or incorrectly applied to general food procurement notices in state and local systems.

The issuing bodies soliciting food products span state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Ben Hill County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Burke County, and Rockwood R-VI in Georgia and Missouri), and regional cooperatives (Douglas County School System via GEC Buying Cooperative). Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast—Georgia, Texas, and Florida—with secondary activity in the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, covering food and consumable products for state-supported living centers), Ben Hill County Schools' food bid IFB (PE61000NONST2027000000006, due June 15, 2026, for fresh and frozen produce, meat, dairy, and kitchen supplies across four school locations), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (2000004323, due April 27, 2026, supplying 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens). No opportunities in the dataset show procurement specifically for organic lesser yam purees or comparable specialty produce purees.
