UNSPSC 50421739: Dried k-5 avocados

The variety of avocados known as k-5 avocados that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50421739 Dried K-5 avocados is a Commodity code that sees minimal relevant recent activity. The code nominally covers dried avocado products, but the recent opportunities posted under it span broad food procurement for school districts, corrections departments, and municipal meal programs — including dried beans, fresh produce, cafeteria staples, and grocery items — none of which are avocados. The few opportunities that touch dried goods (the Oregon Department of Corrections' solicitations for dried pinto and red beans totaling approximately 170,000 pounds combined) fall outside the avocado category entirely. The issuing bodies are diverse state and local agencies: school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), state procurement offices (Texas Comptroller on behalf of Texas Department of Criminal Justice; Oregon Department of Corrections; Illinois; Georgia), and municipal child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas).

The geographic spread covers Texas, Virginia, Missouri, Georgia, and Oregon, with multiple school districts across the Southeast conducting fresh produce and grocery solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (response due April 27, 2026) covering delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens; Rockwood R-VI School District's Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items RFP for over 900 line items (response due April 29, 2026); Muscogee County School District's fresh produce ITB (response due April 27, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's Invitation for Bid for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas (response due May 4, 2026, extended from April 21). The code does not reflect active procurement of dried avocados as a standalone commodity; vendors targeting this code should verify that opportunities posted under it align with actual avocado supply needs before pursuing bids.
