UNSPSC 50461728: Canned or jarred fuchs avocados

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

UNSPSC 50461728 Canned or jarred fuchs avocados is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable prepared avocado products for institutional food service operations. The recent opportunities dataset shows no direct solicitations for canned or jarred avocados under this specific code; instead, the code appears tagged on broader food-service and consumables procurements that include dozens of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy food products primarily for state-operated facilities — state supported living centers, state hospitals, state correctional institutions, and school nutrition programs. Issuing bodies include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (recurring across multiple solicitations for state living centers and hospitals), state departments of corrections (Oregon), state comptroller statewide procurement divisions (on behalf of corrections and criminal justice agencies), and school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Gwinnett County, all in Georgia). The work solicited is large-scale commodity food procurement to stock institutional kitchens and cafeterias, with line-item counts ranging from 20 items to nearly 400, firm fixed pricing, and delivery requirements measured in weeks to months.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Oregon and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables (210 line items across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, bid deadline March 19, 2026, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years), the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 19, 2026 close), the Ben Hill County Schools IFB for food products and related items (due June 15, 2026, spanning fresh produce, meat, dairy, condiments, and kitchen supplies across four school locations), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products to warehouse locations across five geographic regions (extended response deadline May 4, 2026). All solicitations emphasize USDA grade compliance, firm fixed unit pricing, FOB Destination delivery, compliance with Buy American or state-preference requirements where applicable, and references or past vendor performance documentation. The code shows consistent state and local procurement volume but receives direct line-item requests infrequently; vendors entering this space should focus on institutional food-service scale and delivery logistics rather than specialty avocado positioning.
