UNSPSC 50421706: Dried beta avocados

The variety of avocados known as beta avocados that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421706 Dried beta avocados (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity specifically aligned with the code's scope. The source contains thirteen recent opportunities across food supply for public institutions — child nutrition programs, school districts, state corrections facilities, and other state agencies — but only two directly reference dried legumes (pinto and red beans) rather than avocados, fresh or dried. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two solicitations for dried pinto beans in March and June 2026, totaling roughly 170,000 pounds across the two awards; the remainder of the opportunities center on fresh produce, grocery staples, proteins, dairy, grains, and cafeteria supplies for school nutrition programs and institutional food service. The code itself is tightly specific to dried avocados, a product category that does not appear in any of the recent solicitations reviewed.

State and local governments are actively procuring food supply under adjacent UNSPSC codes — school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Muscogee County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon, Texas), state agencies (Illinois, Georgia), and municipal child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas) all issued RFPs, IFBs, and ITBs between January and July 2026. However, procurement under 50421706 Dried beta avocados specifically does not appear in the available recent record. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the activity documented in the source suggests either that this commodity line experiences insufficient demand in state and local markets to generate visible solicitation activity, or that issuing bodies are tagging similar dried-fruit or dried-protein items under different UNSPSC classifications. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify directly with state and local procurement offices whether dried avocados appear in active solicitations under alternative codes or whether demand is genuinely absent in the institutional food service sector.
