UNSPSC 50431720: Dried organic chica avocados

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

UNSPSC 50431720 Dried organic chica avocados (Commodity) does not reflect the state and local procurement activity the code name suggests. The recent opportunities solicited under this code consist almost entirely of broad-based school nutrition and correctional facility food service contracts for staple proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, and produce — not dried avocados. The City of Edinburg, Texas, issued RFP2026017 for a Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meal service requiring five supply categories (beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, nonfood products) with responses due August 4, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products spanning 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, canned and fresh vegetables, and condiments, with responses extended to May 4, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans (ITB S-29100-00016233) and later 42,500 pounds of dried pinto and red beans (S2910000017140), with responses due March 20, 2026, and June 19, 2026, respectively. The issuing bodies are a mix of state corrections departments, state purchasing divisions, school districts, and municipal governments, with school districts and state correctional facilities appearing most frequently in recent postings.

The geographic spread spans Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Virginia, and Missouri, with school districts concentrated in Georgia and Virginia. Representative recent school nutrition contracts include Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) Master Grocery K-12 (IFB 2000004323, sealed bids due April 27, 2026); Muscogee County School District (Georgia) fresh produce (ITB 26-017, due April 27, 2026); Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) grocery items for 2026-27 (due April 29, 2026, via NUTRIKIDS electronic submission); Douglas County School System (Georgia) fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026, estimated $5.5 million across two service areas); and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System fresh produce (Bid 26-34, due April 23, 2026). The code shows material recent activity but little alignment with dried organic avocados specifically — the procurement reflects broad commodity food service categories for institutional feeders rather than specialty produce lines.
