UNSPSC 50314430: Organic ortanique tangerines

The variety of organic mandarin oranges and tangerines known as organic ortanique tangerines

UNSPSC 50314430 Organic ortanique tangerines is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure specialty citrus fruits for school nutrition programs, though recent solicitations show the code captures a broader range of fresh produce procurement than the nominal product name suggests. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with activity concentrated among Georgia school systems (Glynn County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, Bulloch County School District), Wisconsin school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Texas districts (McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District). District procurement offices solicit produce under this code to supply National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, and USDA-funded Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs serving elementary through high school students. Actual solicitations describe comprehensive fresh produce catalogs—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, citrus varieties, melons, peppers, and specialty items—rather than organic tangerines alone, indicating the code is used as a catch-all for institutional fresh produce supply rather than for a specific fruit type.

Georgia school districts account for the heaviest recent activity, with sealed bids and RFPs posted in March through June 2026 from Glynn County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, Muscogee County, and Bulloch County, alongside a cooperative procurement through Douglas County School System covering 30 districts across two regions with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million per area. Representative opportunities include the Glynn County Board of Education IFB 27-02 (sealed bids due April 14, 2026) for approximately 60 produce line items delivered weekly to 16 school locations, and the Liberty County Board of Education IFB for purchase and distribution of food products (bids due April 29, 2026) covering produce and food items across 13 schools. Outside Georgia, Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin posted RFB 4162 for petite bananas (bids due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles and Wisconsin state lines (bids due July 29, 2026). McAllen Independent School District in Texas solicited fresh produce under RFP 2026-1029 (proposals due March 6, 2026, extended by addendum) for 31 campuses serving 20,000 students, and Austin Independent School District issued RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and a la carte beverages (proposals due March 11, 2026). Most opportunities specify firm pricing for 12 months, Buy American compliance requiring domestic commodities or at least 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed goods, HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, and delivery to school sites on weekly to bi-weekly schedules.
