UNSPSC 50401726: Dr dupuis avocados

The variety of avocados known as dr. dupuis avocados

UNSPSC 50401726 Dr dupuis avocados is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure as part of broader fresh produce sourcing for school nutrition programs, child care facilities, senior services, and institutional food service operations. Recent opportunities show active bidding for avocados alongside mixed fresh fruit and vegetable offerings, though the code's narrow product specificity means most buying emerges indirectly through larger produce-family solicitations. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with secondary activity from Head Start agencies, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and city senior services departments. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas and Georgia, where school nutrition programs and state criminal justice food service conduct annual or multi-year fresh produce procurement campaigns.

Recent representative opportunities illustrate the procurement pattern. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) is requesting bids under RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks including produce sourced within 400 miles, with delivery by July 29, 2026, for approximately 5,900 servings weekly under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program; the District applies a $0.20 per pound preference discount on organic produce. Head Start of Greater Dallas is conducting IFB 26-GP for primary, secondary, and tertiary grocery suppliers covering approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat meeting Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) requirements, with sealed bids due June 24, 2026, and a pre-bid conference held April 16, 2026, at the agency headquarters; the estimated procurement value is $969,460.94 funded through federal Head Start appropriations with 25 percent nonfederal matching. Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued multiple IFBs for bulk produce—carrots (IW253079), sweet potatoes (IW253121), and white potatoes (IW253099)—all due June 23, 2026, with submissions required through the TDCJ Procurement Portal via Bonfire Hub and electronic filing mandatory; contact Carolyn Dahlen at Carolyn.dahlen@tdcj.texas.gov for procurement inquiries. School districts in Georgia including Bartow County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Liberty County, Glynn County, and Henry County Schools are actively bidding fresh produce contracts for the 2026-2027 school year with response dates ranging from May through June 2026, most structured as sealed bids with annual contract terms and options for renewal. Activity remains concentrated in institutional food service contexts where avocados appear as line items within comprehensive produce specifications rather than standalone procurements.
