UNSPSC 50496608: Organic potato yam purees

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

UNSPSC 50496608 Organic potato yam purees, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local solicitation activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span a broad range of food procurement — from weekly food orders at veterans homes and correctional facilities, to comprehensive school nutrition contracts covering hundreds of line items across produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared foods, to single-commodity bids for canned tomatoes and tomato paste. None of these solicitations explicitly reference organic potato or yam purees as a line item or focal product category. The code appears to be a mis-tag in the state and local procurement database, applied to general food service contracts that do not target the specialized commodity the code nominally describes.

Issuing bodies across the recent records include state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Ben Hill County in Georgia, Burke County and Liberty County in Georgia, Fairfax County in Virginia, Muscogee County and Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia), and one county school system (Douglas County in Georgia). Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri, with solicitations posted between January and June 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's HHS0017449 IFB for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). The absence of procurement activity explicitly targeting organic potato yam purees suggests either minimal state and local demand for this specialty product or systematic tagging errors that obscure actual purchasing patterns in the data.
