UNSPSC 50461753: Canned or jarred monroe avocados

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

UNSPSC 50461753 Canned or jarred Monroe avocados, a Commodity code, does not match recent state and local procurement activity in the source material. The fourteen recent opportunities under this code span canned tomatoes, tomato paste, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-service grocery and prepared-food procurement for schools, detention facilities, veterans' homes, and state-supported living centers. The code nominally names a single preserved product—Monroe avocados—yet state and local buyers are consistently soliciting canned vegetables, fresh produce, broad grocery assortments, and meal-service foods across dozens of line items per solicitation. No recent opportunities name canned or jarred avocados of any origin.

Issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia and Illinois state offices), county school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Muscogee County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, Rockwood R-VI, Douglas County, Fairfax County), a veterans' home (Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy), and detention and institutional food-service programs. Texas HHSC and Oregon DOC appear in multiple recent solicitations. Geographic spread covers Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri, with heaviest activity in Georgia school districts and Texas institutional food service. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), the Texas HHSC IFB for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (due July 13, 2026, with estimated historical spend of $1.5 million for prior year), Ben Hill County Schools IFB for broad food products including canned goods (due June 15, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for master grocery K-12 across 45 schools (due April 27, 2026). The code shows active procurement volume but lacks any canned-avocado-specific opportunities; the UNSPSC tag appears misaligned with actual buying patterns.
