UNSPSC 50421763: Dried reed avocados

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

UNSPSC 50421763 Dried reed avocados is a Commodity code with minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The nominal code name does not align with the scope of recent solicitations tagged to it; opportunities identified under this code address broad grocery and food supply procurement for schools, correctional facilities, and child nutrition programs rather than specialty dried avocado products. The City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) RFP solicits beverages, paper goods, proteins, fruits, vegetables, snacks, and janitorial supplies for approximately 400 children daily, while the Oregon Department of Corrections procurement (posted June 5, 2026, bids due June 19, 2026) requests approximately 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans—a dried-legume commodity structurally similar to dried avocados but distinct from the code's stated commodity line. The State of Illinois weekly food order and the State of Georgia fresh produce solicitation similarly lack specificity regarding dried avocado inclusion. Issuing bodies tagging activity to this code span state departments (Oregon DOC, Illinois), county school systems (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri), city and child-care agencies (City of Edinburg), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, indicating broad state and local participation rather than concentration.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast (Georgia school districts appear frequently) and the Pacific Northwest (Oregon DOC), with secondary activity in Texas, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections dried pinto and red beans ITB (solicitation S2910000017140, 42,500 pounds, bids June 19, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST, historical price $0.493 per pound); Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 term contract IFB for food delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (IFB 2000004323, response due April 27, 2026); and Rockwood R-VI School District child nutrition grocery items across 900+ line items for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 (NUTRIKIDS electronic bid system, responses due April 29, 2026, 9:45 a.m. CDT). The code's indexing to commodity-specific dried-avocado procurement appears misaligned with current state and local buying patterns; businesses pursuing opportunities tagged to this code should verify actual product requirements in solicitation documents before bidding, as the link between the code and advertised scopes is weak or absent.
