UNSPSC 50630102: Sliced, diced, peeled, or chopped potatoes

Sliced, diced, peeled, or chopped potatoes imported into the united states.

UNSPSC 50630102 Sliced, diced, peeled, or chopped potatoes is a Commodity code that encompasses ready-to-eat processed potato products delivered to institutional food service operations, particularly school districts and child nutrition programs. State and local governments procure processed potato products under this code as components of broader fresh produce and grocery supply contracts, where potatoes appear alongside other vegetables in school nutrition, Head Start, and corrections food service procurement. The code sits within the produce-and-vegetable supply chain but captures a narrow slice—the pre-processed, ready-to-serve variants rather than bulk raw commodity potatoes used for canning or bulk institutional cooking.

Recent state and local activity under this code is sparse and fragmented. Two opportunities mention potatoes in processed form: the Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 (posted July 8, 2026, due July 29, 2026) solicits fresh fruit and vegetable snacks including processed produce in ready-to-eat format for elementary USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program participants, and the Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP (posted June 24, 2026) seeks frozen foods and produce including processed items for child care food service. Beyond these, the source shows abundant activity in raw whole potatoes—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFBs for white potatoes (IW253099, posted June 3, 2026, due June 23, 2026) and sweet potatoes for canning (IW253121, posted June 23, 2026)—but these fall under commodity-code territory distinct from sliced, diced, peeled, or chopped prepared forms. School districts across Georgia (Bartow County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Glynn County, and others) and Texas (McAllen ISD, Northside ISD, Austin ISD) have issued RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce and school nutrition food products throughout the first half of 2026, but the available solicitation summaries do not isolate line-item detail for processed potatoes specifically. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, where school districts and criminal justice agencies represent the primary buying volume. Procurement timing clusters in spring 2026 (March through May) for school-year 2026-2027 contracts, with school nutrition programs driving the institutional demand. The code shows minimal recent visibility as a standalone procurement line; processed potatoes typically appear as one item within larger produce or grocery RFPs rather than as the primary solicitation focus.
