UNSPSC 50314442: Organic temple oranges

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

UNSPSC 50314442 Organic temple oranges, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code predominantly solicit fresh produce broadly—bananas, apples, mixed fruits and vegetables, and eggs—rather than organic citrus specifically. Madison Metropolitan School District posted RFB 4162 for petite bananas (bids due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026); both emphasize standard fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs. Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (bids due June 26, 2026) includes citrus varieties but does not single out organic temple oranges. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts and boards of education across Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Wisconsin, which dominate school nutrition procurement. These buyers source produce through both cooperative purchasing vehicles (such as the GEC Buying Cooperative used by Douglas County School System's multi-district RFP for fresh produce and eggs, estimated $4.4 million for Area One) and individual district RFPs and IFBs, typically with weekly or scheduled deliveries to multiple school sites and strict food-safety requirements including HACCP plans and traceability documentation.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia (Hancock County, Bulloch County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County cooperative), Florida (Hillsborough County), Texas (McAllen and Austin Independent School Districts), and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan). Representative opportunities include Liberty County Board of Education's IFB for produce and food products (bids due April 29, 2026) and Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 for fresh produce to 16 school locations (bids due April 14, 2026, with weekly Tuesday delivery). Bulloch County School District's IFP for local produce grown within 200 miles (proposals due May 4, 2026) and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles of Cartersville (proposals due June 22, 2026) reflect growing emphasis on local and regional sourcing. The code's tagging appears imprecise—organic temple oranges represent a specific commodity variant, but state and local procurement offices are soliciting unspecified fresh citrus and mixed produce categories at commodity-group level rather than differentiated organic or varietal specifications, suggesting limited current demand for organic temple oranges as a distinct line item.
