UNSPSC 50441726: Frozen dr dupuis avocados

The variety of avocados known as dr. dupuis avocados that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50441726 Frozen dr dupuis avocados, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—specialized frozen avocado products—bears no relation to the food service contracts actually being solicited under this identifier in the source block, which instead show institutions procuring frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen mixed vegetables, and fresh produce across correctional facilities, school districts, and health and human services agencies. The mismatch between the code name and the work described in the recent opportunities suggests a data classification error rather than active market demand for frozen avocado procurement at the state and local level.

State and local issuing bodies do purchase substantial volumes of frozen vegetables and fresh produce for institutional food service, but under codes that correctly describe commodity categories. Oregon's Department of Corrections (ODOC) and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) appear frequently as repeat buyers of frozen vegetables through ITBs and IFBs; school districts across Georgia, Pennsylvania, Texas, Missouri, and Virginia solicit grocery and produce bids on annual cycles; and regional purchasing cooperatives—such as the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts—aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions. Recent opportunities include ODOC's July 2026 solicitations for frozen corn and potato products (ITB S2910000017451 and S2910000017439, due July 24), Ben Hill County Schools' June 2026 food bid (IFB #26271, due June 15), and the State of Texas Health and Human Services Commission's procurement for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers (HHS0016792V2, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years). Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast—Georgia, Texas, and Pennsylvania—and the Pacific Northwest, with Oregon and Texas appearing as high-volume repeat buyers. If the intent is to pursue frozen avocado sales to state and local food service operations, vendors should verify the correct UNSPSC commodity code assignment before prospecting, as the current code does not reflect active procurement demand.
