UNSPSC 50421736: Dried haas avocados

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

UNSPSC 50421736 Dried haas avocados is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it show little relevance to the nominal scope. The Georgia Correctional Industries RFQ solicits kidney beans for delivery in 880-bag increments due October 9, 2026; the Oregon Department of Corrections bids request approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans due June 19, 2026; and the State of Oregon bids seek dried black beans, triple-cleaned, due August 21, 2026. The City of Edinburg, Texas RFP (due August 4, 2026) covers a Child and Adult Care Food Program meal service with beverages, paper goods, food products including proteins and produce, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items for 400 children daily. The Illinois IVHQ solicitation (due June 26, 2026) addresses weekly food orders for an unspecified institutional use. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB (due May 4, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2) procures approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, beverages, and canned goods for delivery to six TDCJ distribution points across Texas. The code shows no recent opportunities actually soliciting dried haas avocados; instead, postings cluster around dried legumes, institutional food-service bundles, and cafeteria supplies.

State and local buyers of dried beans span state departments (Georgia Correctional Industries, Oregon Corrections and state agencies, Illinois state facilities, Texas TDCJ through the Comptroller's statewide division), cities (Edinburg, Texas), and specialized food-program administrators. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Illinois, with Oregon and Texas showing repeat procurement of dried legumes in the past six months. Issuing bodies impose triple-clean grading standards, FOB destination delivery, palletized shipping on standard wooden pallets, compliance with FDA and USDA food-safety standards, and bulk institutional quantities (880-bag and 42,500-pound orders typical). Local-vendor preferences apply in Texas under Government Code Section 271.9051 (Edinburg); Oregon offers combined 10% evaluation preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon plus 5% for Oregon headquarters (ODOC). Response deadlines cluster in the May-to-October window. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (dried haas avocados) and actual recent postings (dried legumes and broad food-service bundles) suggests the code is either incorrectly tagged in state procurement systems or receives minimal standalone activity, warranting verification of the correct commodity classification before pursuing opportunities listed under this code.
