UNSPSC 50421734: Dried hall avocados

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

UNSPSC 50421734 Dried hall avocados is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity does not reflect purchases of dried avocados; instead, the posted opportunities under this code span broad food-supply procurement for institutional food service including school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, child care operations, and state warehousing. The scope of work actually being solicited encompasses fresh and processed fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and general grocery items delivered on regular schedules to school sites, distribution centers, and institutional kitchens. Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller, Georgia Department of any Social Services), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri; Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County systems in Georgia), cities (Edinburg, Texas via the Boys & Girls Club CACFP program), and state procurement offices (Illinois, Georgia). School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, appearing in nine of fourteen recent opportunities; state agencies appear in four. The procurement pattern reflects routine institutional meal-service supply chains rather than specialty or dried-avocado markets.

The geographic spread concentrates in Georgia (five opportunities across Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County, and statewide Georgia procurement), Texas (three opportunities: Edinburg CACFP, TDCJ statewide, and the Texas Comptroller), and Oregon (two ODOC dried-bean solicitations). Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois account for one opportunity each. Recent representative opportunities include the City of Edinburg's RFP 2026017 for CACFP meal program food and nonfood items due August 4, 2026, spanning five supply categories for 400 children daily; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas with response due May 4, 2026; and the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 supply and delivery to 45 schools and distribution centers, due April 27, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two ITBs for dried pinto beans (127,500 pounds in March 2026 and 42,500 pounds in June 2026), both scored with a combined 10 percent evaluation preference for Oregon-fabricated and Oregon-headquartered vendors. Contract values range from estimated tens of thousands of dollars for smaller school districts to millions annually for large systems and state agencies, with Douglas County's cooperative RFP estimating $4.4 million for Area One produce alone.
