UNSPSC 50411730: Organic fuerte avocados

The variety of organic avocados known as organic fuerte avocados

UNSPSC 50411730 Organic fuerte avocados (Commodity) does not reflect the actual scope of work in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's name specifies a single produce item, yet all current solicitations under this code procure broad fresh-produce categories for school nutrition programs and state food service operations, with no recent opportunities identifying avocados—organic or conventional—as a standalone line item or material procurement focus.

State and local education agencies, including school districts and county boards of education across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri, issue the vast majority of solicitations under this code. Representative recent activity includes the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) procuring fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; the Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 (due April 14, 2026) covering approximately 60 fresh-produce line items for 16 school locations; Northside Independent School District in San Antonio's RFP 2026-048 (due May 7, 2026) for fresh produce delivery across all district campuses five days per week; and Liberty County Board of Education's IFB (due April 29, 2026) for produce and food products serving 13 school sites. The State of Georgia has also issued multiple IFBs for fresh produce to support state operations (IFB #4 2027-2026, due May 27, 2026). Procurements use RFP, RFQ, and IFB notice types; most require USDA compliance including Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, traceability systems, and food-recall procedures. School nutrition programs emphasize domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. Deliveries typically occur Monday through Friday during school hours, with pricing based on USDA Terminal Market reports or cost-plus-fixed-fee structures, and contracts run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Douglas County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Early County, Bulloch County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and state-level procurements) and extends to Texas (Austin ISD, Northside ISD in San Antonio, McAllen ISD), Florida (Hillsborough County), and Missouri (Rockwood School District). The mismatch between the commodity code's name and the broad produce procurement scope suggests the code is used as a catch-all category for fresh-produce solicitations rather than a precise targeting mechanism, making pursuit decisions dependent on your firm's capability to supply mixed produce across multiple categories and geographies rather than specialized avocado sourcing.
