UNSPSC 50461712: Canned or jarred booth 3 avocados

The variety of avocados known as booth 3 avocados that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50461712 Canned or jarred booth 3 avocados (Commodity) sees sporadic state and local procurement activity, with the code appearing in a narrow slice of food-service solicitations where canned and jarred avocado products are incidental line items within broader grocery or food-supply contracts rather than primary procurement drivers. State and local governments buy canned or jarred avocados as part of mixed food-service portfolios—school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and institutional state health services—where they appear as single-unit offerings alongside dozens or hundreds of other food items, not as standalone procurements. Issuing bodies include school districts (elementary through high school nutrition programs), state corrections departments, state health and human services commissions, and state-supported living centers. The code does not generate dedicated solicitations focused exclusively on avocado products; instead, canned or jarred avocados are tagged items within comprehensive food-supply IFBs and RFPs that solicit proteins, produce, dairy, prepared foods, condiments, and supplies in the same notice.

Recent activity is concentrated in the South and Midwest, with notable solicitations from Texas (Health and Human Services Commission supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and living centers), Georgia (school district nutrition programs including Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, and Douglas County School System), and Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home weekly food orders). The code shows minimal standalone pursuit opportunity; vendors typically respond to the broader food-supply categories under these solicitations rather than positioning avocado products as a competitive advantage. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026; due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products supplying the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center and Department of State Health Services, and Ben Hill County Schools School Nutrition Program IFB #26271 (posted May 19, 2026; due June 15, 2026) for food products across multiple categories for four school locations. Neither solicitation emphasizes or isolates avocado procurement; both enumerate avocados as minor line items within expansive food-service catalogs priced on per-unit or per-case bases alongside hundreds of other items. The code represents low-priority procurement volume for most jurisdictions and is best pursued through primary food-service distributor relationships rather than as a standalone specialty category.
