UNSPSC 50461720: Canned or jarred chica avocados

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

UNSPSC 50461720 Canned or jarred chica avocados is a Commodity code that names a narrow product line, but the recent opportunities listed under it do not reflect procurement of that specific item—instead, they show state and local governments soliciting broad food-supply contracts that span proteins, produce, dairy, condiments, prepared foods, and consumable kitchen supplies for institutional feeding operations. The actual buying pattern under this code in state and local markets runs to multi-line-item food bids for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school districts, and human services agencies, where canned avocados—if purchased at all—appear as one item among dozens or hundreds in a consolidated food-service procurement rather than as a standalone commodity line.

State procurement offices, county purchasing divisions, and school district nutrition programs issue these bids as IFBs and IWQs across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice appearing as repeat buyers. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 11, 2026), the Gwinnett County informal written quote 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items to support senior services (due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' food bid for fiscal 2026–2027 covering fresh produce, meat, dairy, and packaged goods across four school locations (due June 15, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia; Oregon shows secondary activity. The code shows little targeted demand for canned or jarred avocados as a standalone procurement vehicle—state and local buyers source them, if at all, within broader food-service aggregations where unit pricing and delivery-within-days requirements drive vendor selection.
