UNSPSC 50461770: Canned or jarred simpson avocados

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

UNSPSC 50461770 Canned or jarred simpson avocados, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the product category itself. State and local governments do procure canned and jarred produce under this code tier, but the recent solicitations recorded against it are dominated by broader food-service and school-nutrition contracts that name multiple food categories—including canned vegetables, fruits, proteins, and condiments—rather than targeting avocado products specifically. School districts and state agencies account for the bulk of buying, with recent opportunities from Illinois, Texas, Oregon, and Georgia soliciting weekly food orders, state supported living center supplies, canned tomatoes, and comprehensive school nutrition groceries covering dozens or hundreds of line items per bid. Representative recent opportunities include the State of Illinois FY-27 IVHQ Quarterly Food Order (RFQ, posted June 18, 2026, due June 26, 2026) for weekly food supply fulfillment, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission food and consumable products procurement for El Paso State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017449, posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomatoes solicitation (ITB S2910000017145, posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026, approximately 7,616 cases). School districts including Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) have issued food procurement bids in the past two months.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Upper Midwest, with Georgia school districts especially active. Texas state agencies (HHSC, TDCJ, Comptroller) and the Oregon Department of Corrections represent state-level buying, while Illinois, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia school systems dominate the recent opportunity set. The code shows no dedicated avocado-specific solicitations in the recent record; instead, canned and jarred avocados would be one line item among hundreds in larger institutional food procurements. Vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete in multi-category, multi-line-item school nutrition and institutional food-service bids where avocado products, if included at all, represent a small component of broader grocery supply agreements. Pricing in these solicitations typically remains firm for initial periods with allowances for indexed or documented cost-of-living adjustments thereafter, delivery is F.O.B. Destination with all freight included in unit pricing, and awards are made to lowest responsive, responsible bidders or on a line-item basis to multiple vendors based on best value.
