UNSPSC 50441764: Frozen rue avocados

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

UNSPSC 50441764 Frozen rue avocados, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope — the opportunities tagged with this code are instead soliciting frozen corn, frozen potatoes, frozen mixed vegetables, frozen carrots, and assorted frozen vegetable blends, along with unrelated educational materials, software licensing, and bridge maintenance work. The mismatch between the code name and the work actually posted suggests the code has either been misapplied by issuing bodies or sees minimal genuine use for the product it nominally describes.

State and local solicitations under this code cluster around institutional food service — school districts, corrections facilities, and state human services agencies procuring frozen vegetables in bulk for cafeterias and inmate meals. Oregon's Department of Corrections has posted multiple ITBs for frozen vegetables (corn, potatoes, carrots, assorted blends) with delivery to Salem, Texas corrections and health agencies have similarly issued multiple solicitations for frozen commodity foods, and Georgia school systems including Early County Schools, Bulloch County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the City Schools of Decatur have all bid frozen food products. The issuing-body mix reflects routine institutional procurement across state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and school nutrition programs. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, with secondary activity in Pennsylvania, Missouri, Illinois, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for frozen corn vegetables (40,000 pounds, due July 24, 2026) and frozen potato products (120,000 pounds, due July 24, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items across facilities in 12 regions, due March 19, 2026), and the Bulloch County Board of Education's IFB for comprehensive food products and supplies (due May 4, 2026). Activity is current and ongoing — most opportunities posted between February and July 2026 — but reflects generalized frozen vegetable procurement, not the specific product named in the code.
