UNSPSC 50461739: Canned or jarred k-5 avocados

The variety of avocados known as k-5 avocados that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50461739 Canned or jarred k-5 avocados, a Commodity code, sees minimal direct procurement activity in the state and local market; recent opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect avocado purchases. The code's stated scope—canned or jarred avocados in USDA grades K-5—diverges substantially from what state and local government solicitations actually name. Instead, the opportunities posted under this code cover broad food service procurement for correctional facilities, state health systems, school districts, and veterans' homes, with line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, bakery goods, condiments, and prepared entrees. The issuing bodies are exclusively state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, Georgia State of Georgia), state-supported institutions (state hospitals and supported living centers), and school districts (six districts across Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Oregon). Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with smaller presence in Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's bid for supplemental food and consumables statewide (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), covering 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers across Texas with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato procurement (S2910000017145, closed June 19, 2026) for 7,616 cases delivered to Salem with an incumbent price of $13.75 per case; Ben Hill County Schools' food bid (due June 15, 2026) covering multiple product categories with Buy American requirements; and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) establishing supply for 45 schools with firm pricing for one year. The code shows no recent state or local solicitations specifically requesting canned or jarred avocados as a line item or primary procurement focus, indicating limited near-term pursuit opportunity under this specific commodity classification.
