UNSPSC 50411700: Organic avocados

The type of organic vegetable known as organic avocados

UNSPSC 50411700 Organic avocados is a Class code that encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local agencies, though recent solicitations show the code capturing a broader range of food-service and produce-supply activities than the code name alone suggests. State and local governments buy under this code when they solicit fresh fruits, vegetables, and related produce items for institutional food service — including school lunch programs, park concessions, healthcare facilities, and state purchasing cooperatives. The issuing bodies include school districts, county governments, state procurement offices, and specialized healthcare coalitions. Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida), Marion Health Care Coalition, and the State of Georgia have all posted opportunities under or related to this code in recent months, indicating activity across school nutrition, recreational food service, and institutional produce supply.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, and appear to reflect a mix of competitive purchasing models. Early County Board of Education posted an IFB for line-by-line food and produce bids on May 11, 2026, with response due June 8, 2026, covering 300+ food items including fresh vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program across three schools, with contract performance July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate on October 8, 2026, for food services at North Collier Regional Park (response due March 6, 2025) that includes fresh food and beverage options at concession facilities. Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals due August 21, 2026, for fresh fruits and vegetables delivery during the 2026-2027 contract period. The State of Georgia posted a broader food-supplies IFB on May 15, 2026, with response due June 22, 2026. These opportunities emphasize compliance with food-safety standards, delivery scheduling, temperature control, domestic sourcing where applicable, and competitive wholesale pricing with transportation included.
