UNSPSC 50481813: Booth 5 avocado purees

The variety of avocados known as booth 5 avocados which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50481813 Booth 5 avocado purees, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—a State of Illinois weekly food order for the Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy (Solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, RFQ, due June 26, 2026)—does not specify avocado purees among its line items and appears tangentially related at best. The recent opportunities block instead reflects broad food procurement across school districts, state corrections and health agencies, and institutional facilities, with solicitations covering fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, and consumable supplies rather than specialty fruit purees. State and local buyers in this category typically include school nutrition programs, state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies serving institutional populations, and county school systems; the mix spans states including Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Missouri.

The broader food-procurement ecosystem shows active competition among school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state corrections departments (Oregon DOC, Texas TDCJ), and state health agencies (Texas HHSC/DSHS, Illinois Veterans Homes). These buyers solicit via RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB; representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC procurement for supplemental food and consumables statewide (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, estimated historical value $1.5 million for prior period), the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomatoes (IFB S2910000017145, approximately 7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026), and the Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, approximately 900 line items, due April 29, 2026). Activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia particularly), Texas, the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois), and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with school districts accounting for the plurality of posted opportunities. The code itself shows insufficient direct evidence of active pursuit; business development professionals should monitor broader UNSPSC food categories (particularly 50000000 and subordinate codes for fresh produce, prepared foods, and institutional supplies) rather than rely on this commodity code's sparse recent signal.
