UNSPSC 50304444: Wekiwa tangerines

The variety of mandarin oranges and tangerines known as wekiwa tangerines

UNSPSC 50304444 Wekiwa tangerines (Commodity) describes specialized citrus procurement, but recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code predominantly reflect broad fresh produce supply across multiple commodity types — apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and mixed produce items — rather than tangerine-specific sourcing. Issuing bodies include state corrections departments, school districts, county health and human services agencies, and municipalities. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has posted multiple fresh fruit and vegetable solicitations for food warehouse supply (IW267376, IW267420, IW267411) alongside offerings from the Illinois Department of Mental Health, Illinois Department of Corrections, and numerous school nutrition programs across Georgia, Mississippi, Wisconsin, Texas, Connecticut, and Florida. School districts and county boards of education represent the largest share of recent activity, typically procuring produce for National School Lunch Program compliance and child nutrition services. City and county parks departments, senior services, and child care food program operators also source produce under this code family.

Geographic concentration centers on Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Bryan County, Dougherty County, Early County school systems; DeSoto County School District in Mississippi), Texas (Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin secured a $78,000 petite banana contract running September 2026 through June 2027), Illinois, Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park due March 6, 2025), and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education posted an IFB for over 1,100 line-item grocery items including produce due June 30, 2026). Collier County issued an ITN for fresh food services at regional parks with a 10-point local-vendor preference and evaluation weighting 100 total points across vendor qualifications, menu variety, food safety compliance, and cost. Head Start of Greater Dallas and the City of Edinburg (CACFP meal program RFP 2026-017) source fresh produce alongside nonfood supplies to support child nutrition. Recent solicitations emphasize Buy American sourcing, HACCP plans, traceability documentation by farm of origin (Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks within 400 miles of Madison, Wisconsin), minimum fill rates (97–98% service levels), delivery window constraints (early morning to mid-day Monday through Friday), and insurance requirements ranging from $500,000 to $2 million general liability coverage. Contract terms typically run one school or fiscal year with renewal options.
