UNSPSC 50431756: Dried organic nadir avocados

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

UNSPSC 50431756 Dried organic nadir avocados is a Commodity code that does not reflect the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities show no solicitations for dried avocados or avocado products; instead, the code is being used by jurisdictions to tag broad food service and grocery supply contracts that encompass dozens or hundreds of produce, protein, dairy, grain, and staple items. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two bids for dried pinto and red beans under this code; the Texas Comptroller has solicited cafeteria food products for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice; and multiple school districts and the City of Edinburg, Texas have posted RFPs and ITBs for comprehensive grocery and produce supply. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a single specialized product) and the actual work being solicited (bulk food service supply across multiple categories) suggests the code is being misapplied as a catch-all categorization by procurement offices.

State and local buyers using this code are primarily large school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Muscogee County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), a city child nutrition program (City of Edinburg, Texas), and a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple Georgia school districts (GEC Buying Cooperative). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Virginia, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services RFQ for over 900 line items of grocery items due April 29, 2026; the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for Master Grocery K-12 to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens due April 27, 2026; the Texas Comptroller's IFB for cafeteria food products to supply TDCJ warehouse locations across five geographic areas due May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2 from April 21); and the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million by area due March 4, 2026. Most solicitations require firm-fixed pricing for the contract term, weekly or daily deliveries during school operating hours, compliance with USDA and HACCP standards, and insurance minimums between $1 million and $2 million per occurrence depending on contract value.
