UNSPSC 50421727: Dried ettinger avocados

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

UNSPSC 50421727 Dried ettinger avocados is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations posted under it do not align with its nominal scope. The code shows little relevant recent activity: the most recent opportunities name kidney beans (Georgia Correctional Industries), black beans and pinto/red beans (Oregon Department of Corrections), mixed cafeteria food products (Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal supply (City of Edinburg, Texas), and a generic weekly food order (State of Illinois). None of these represent dried ettinger avocados or avocado products. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error in the source system or that the Commodity code is being used as a catch-all for institutional dried-bean and food-supply procurement rather than for the specific product the code nominally describes.

The issuing bodies pursuing food procurement under this code include state correctional and institutional agencies (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois), state purchasing offices acting on behalf of criminal justice systems (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts for TDCJ), and municipal bodies serving food programs (City of Edinburg). Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia, Oregon, Texas, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026 (with a 10% evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-headquartered bidders), the Texas Comptroller's IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic TDCJ warehouse areas with responses extended to May 4, 2026, and Georgia Correctional Industries' eRFQ for kidney beans in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026. If your firm pursues food supply to institutional buyers, this code should be monitored, but confirm the actual commodity scope with the issuing body before proposal preparation.
