UNSPSC 50441716: Frozen brooks 1978 avocados

The variety of avocados known as brooks 1978 avocados that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50441716 Frozen brooks 1978 avocados (Commodity) bears a significant mismatch between its nominal scope and recent state and local solicitation activity. The code shows no relevant recent opportunities; recent postings tagged under this code are instead soliciting frozen vegetables (corn, carrots, mixed assorted blends, potatoes), fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive grocery and food service products for correctional facilities, school districts, and state agencies. The abstract code name does not align with the work being bought.

State and local governments actively purchasing under related frozen produce and grocery categories include the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, school districts across Georgia (Early County, Burke County, Bulloch County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham County, City Schools of Decatur), Illinois, Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Pennsylvania (Montgomery County), Virginia (Fairfax County), and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), along with county correctional facilities and state nutrition support programs. Recent representative solicitations span ITB and IFB notice types: the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITBs for frozen corn (40,000 pounds due July 24, 2026), frozen potato products (120,000 pounds due July 24, 2026), and assorted frozen vegetables (200,000 pounds combined, due April 23, 2026); Ben Hill County Schools issued an IFB for food products across multiple categories due June 15, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (contract value up to $4.5 million over three years). Geographic activity concentrates in the South (Georgia, Texas, South Carolina) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with additional activity in the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois) and Mid-Atlantic (Pennsylvania, Virginia, Connecticut). Pricing in recent frozen vegetable solicitations ranges from $0.30 to $0.67 per pound depending on product and packaging. The code warrants review for proper reclassification or source-data accuracy.
