UNSPSC 50491707: Organic biondo avocado purees

The variety of organic avocados known as organic biondo avocados which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50491707 Organic biondo avocado purees is a Commodity code that describes a narrowly specified food product, yet the recent solicitations posted under it do not actually request organic biondo avocado purees. Instead, state and local buyers are issuing IFBs, RFQs, and ITBs for broad food and consumable product procurement—including proteins, dairy, frozen vegetables, canned goods, fresh produce, condiments, and food service supplies—for institutional cafeterias, kitchens, and food-service operations. The code sits at the intersection of school nutrition programs, state health and human services agencies, correctional facilities, and county social services, all of which buy packaged and prepared foods in bulk. The mismatch between the code's specific name and what is actually being solicited signals that procurement offices are using this Commodity code as a catch-all for broader food and consumable category bids rather than for the specific product the code nominates.

The issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois), county governments (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County), and school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools). Texas state agencies, particularly HHSC, appear most active under this code in the recent record, with multiple consecutive solicitations for supplemental foods, consumable products, and cafeteria items for state-supported living centers and health facilities. Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with additional postings from Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumable foods, due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services, due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), which reference prior purchases from California Healthy Harvest at $13.75 per case. School district food bids typically require firm pricing for 30 days post-award, with subsequent escalation tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks, and all institutional buyers specify FOB Destination delivery, USDA grade compliance, Buy American Act adherence, and liability insurance minimums ranging from $500,000 to $1,000,000 per occurrence.
