UNSPSC 50314443: Organic thornton oranges

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

UNSPSC 50314443 Organic thornton oranges is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name references a specific variety of organic citrus, yet the most recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for organic thornton oranges or organic citrus of any variety. Instead, the block documents eighteen separate school nutrition and child nutrition procurements across Georgia, Texas, and Florida issued between February 2026 and July 2026, all centering on fresh produce supply contracts for school lunch and breakfast programs. These solicitations span diverse produce categories—bananas, apples, berries, vegetables, melons, citrus (non-organic), and eggs—but do not isolate organic thornton oranges as a line item or focus area. The issuing bodies are school districts and boards of education, which constitute the primary state and local purchaser type for this commodity code in the available record.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Georgia, where fourteen of the eighteen opportunities originate from school districts across the state (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and Douglas County cooperatively), with additional activity in Texas (McAllen Independent School District and Austin Independent School District) and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools). Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for Petite Bananas (bids due July 29, 2026) with estimated annual value of $78,000, Liberty County Board of Education's IFB for Food Products (bids due April 29, 2026) encompassing over 400 food items, and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative serving thirty school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. The code shows no evidence of recent state-level procurement, county government, municipal, transit authority, or special-purpose district activity under its nominal scope.
