UNSPSC 50481846: Loretta avocado purees

The variety of avocados known as loretta avocados which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50481846 Loretta avocado purees is a Commodity code that sees minimal alignment with state and local procurement activity. The recent solicitations tagged under this code show no purchases of avocado purees or related products. Instead, the opportunities reflect generic food and consumables procurement spanning prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, canned goods, condiments, and food service supplies—purchased in bulk by institutional food service operations including state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services departments. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of State Health Services), state correctional agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts across multiple states (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia), and county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia). The code does not appear to be actively used for specialty produce items like avocado purees in current state and local procurement.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumables for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026), and Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid for nearly 400 line items of school nutrition food products across five schools (bids due June 5, 2026). A major statewide Texas procurement under IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumables to serve state hospitals and supported living centers across Texas encompassed 210 line items with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years. The opportunities show that state and local buyers use this code broadly for multi-category food service procurement rather than for specialized products. No recent solicitations specifically request avocado purees or similar fruit-based value-added products.
