UNSPSC 50401747: Lula avocados

The variety of avocados known as lula avocados

UNSPSC 50401747 Lula avocados, a Commodity code, names a single fresh produce item but does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity in the recent record. State and local governments do not systematically solicit lula avocados as a category; instead, they procure broad fresh produce bundles—including apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, onions, oranges, potatoes, strawberries, and tomatoes—through school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, mental health centers, senior services, and other public institutions. The issuing bodies include state departments of health and human services, departments of criminal justice, school nutrition programs across multiple states, and county-level social service agencies. The breadth of recent activity reflects institutional food service operations that bundle produce with frozen items, proteins, dairy, and disposables rather than procurements organized around single commodity lines.

Geographic spread concentrates in Texas, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and multiple school districts posting eight opportunities between June and October 2026, followed by activity in Georgia (Bartow County Schools, Dougherty County Schools, Bryan County Schools, Early County Schools), Illinois (Department of Corrections at Joliet, Department of Mental Health at Madden Mental Health Center), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026, with 22 line items of prepared foods and service supplies), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's multiple fresh-fruit-and-vegetable RFPs for Palestine and food warehouses at Snyder and Wynne (due October 19 and October 14, respectively), the Illinois Department of Corrections' RFQ for fresh produce to Joliet Treatment Center (due September 3, 2026, with biweekly delivery of specified items under small-business set-aside), and Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed bid for fresh produce across 24 nutrition sites (due June 16, 2026, covering 40 line items). Procurement is fragmented across institutional categories and geographies with no single repeat buyer dominating the code, and most recent solicitations do not reference lula avocados specifically; the code appears misaligned with current state and local demand.
