UNSPSC 50314440: Organic tangelos

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

UNSPSC 50314440 Organic tangelos, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent procurement activity. While the code nominally describes organic citrus fruit, the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code are predominantly for fresh produce supply contracts to school nutrition programs, and those opportunities specify conventional (non-organic) produce including bananas, apples, broccoli, carrots, citrus varieties (Kisses, Kishus, Satsumas, tangerines), and mixed fresh fruits and vegetables—not organic tangelos specifically. The one exception is a brief reference to organic produce in the Austin Independent School District RFP, which applies a $0.20 per pound price preference discount on organic items in final price comparison, but this is embedded within a broader fresh produce and beverage solicitation that does not isolate organic tangelos as a line item. The code's abstract scope and the actual work being solicited diverge substantially, with no dedicated tangelo procurement opportunities identified in the recent state and local record.

School nutrition programs across Georgia, Florida, and Texas are the primary issuing bodies using produce-related codes in this period, including the Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and the Douglas County School System purchasing through the GEC Buying Cooperative. These districts are soliciting fresh produce through RFPs and IFBs with response dates ranging from March through July 2026, typically for fiscal-year contracts running July 2026 through June 2027 with annual values from $78,000 (Madison petite bananas) to $5.5 million (Douglas County cooperative produce and eggs across 30 districts). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas. The lack of organic tangelo–specific opportunities suggests this code is either under-utilized for state and local procurement or systematically tagged to broader fresh produce solicitations where organic items remain a minor component of overall scope.
