UNSPSC 50481820 Chica avocado purees is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure prepared food products and consumable supplies for institutional food service operations at correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and senior services programs. Recent opportunities show the code capturing a broader range of shelf-stable and prepared foods than the narrow code name suggests—canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, condiments, fresh and frozen produce, and disposable food service supplies dominate recent solicitations. Issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Department of Corrections), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), and independent school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, and Texas school nutrition programs). The mix reflects institutional food procurement concentrated in state-level operations supplemented by regional county and school district activity.
