UNSPSC 50304429: Orlando tangelo oranges

This early maturing tangelo is noted for its juicy, mild, sweet flavor. Orlandos are flat-round in shape and larger in size. The Orlando tangelo originated as a cross between a Duncan grapefruit and a Dancy tangerine.

UNSPSC 50304429 Orlando tangelo oranges is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of fresh citrus and mixed fresh produce for institutional food service, though recent activity shows the code is applied inconsistently across a broader range of produce items than the specific commodity name implies. State and local buying under this code centers on institutional food service to correctional facilities, mental health centers, school districts, senior services, and child care programs. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and mental health, county and municipal school districts, county commissioners, city governments, and specialized agencies such as Head Start organizations and health care coalitions. The mix reflects the distributed nature of state and local institutional food service, with school nutrition programs and state correctional departments appearing as repeat buyers across multiple recent solicitations.

Activity clusters heavily in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, Connecticut, and Mississippi, with school districts representing the largest share of recent solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice seeking fresh fruit and vegetable supply to its Palestine and Wynne food warehouses (IW267376, due October 19, 2026, and IW267411, due October 14, 2026, respectively); the Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for petite bananas at $78,000 annual contract value with weekly usage of 70–90 cases (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026); the Illinois Department of Corrections requesting fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center under small business set-aside (27426DOCJOLIEB53849, due September 3, 2026); and the Dougherty County Board of Education seeking sealed bids on 40 fresh produce line items for 24 school nutrition sites (PE64710NONST2027000000078, due June 16, 2026). Collier County (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (258360, due March 6, 2025), and the City of Edinburg (Texas) sought proposals for CACFP meal program supply including fresh produce (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026). Buy American requirements appear in multiple school district solicitations; local-vendor preferences are common in school and county procurements; and prevailing wage certification is required in some Illinois state facility contracts. Payment terms typically range from Net 30 to Net 45 days, and contracts generally run one school or fiscal year with renewal options.
