UNSPSC 50324401: Dried clauselinas oranges

The variety of mandarin oranges and tangerines known as clauselinas oranges that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324401 Dried clauselinas oranges is a Commodity code that covers dried citrus fruit products for institutional food service. Recent state and local opportunities show minimal procurement activity specifically for dried clauselinas oranges; instead, purchasing bodies are soliciting broadly for dried fruits as part of larger fresh produce, grocery, or food supply contracts. The County of Santa Clara, California's January 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts to support correctional facility food services represents the closest match, though it encompasses dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans rather than dried clauselinas specifically. Issuing bodies pursuing dried fruit procurement span school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via Texas Comptroller), municipalities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), counties (Santa Clara County, California), and specialized vendors serving correctional facilities and child nutrition programs. School districts dominate activity, driven by USDA child nutrition requirements and Buy American provisions mandating domestic agricultural commodity content.

Geographic concentration centers on Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Recent opportunities cluster in early 2026 through mid-2026, with response dates concentrated between February and June 2026. Representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools' June 2026 IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including citrus fruits for the 2026-27 school year (response due June 26, 2026), City of Bridgeport's June 2026 IFB for commodities to supply school nutrition operations (response due June 26, 2026), Santa Clara County's January 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts to Elmwood Correctional Facility requiring all-or-none bidding (response due February 5, 2026), and Douglas County School System's January 2026 RFP for food supply and distribution services supporting approximately 32,000 daily meals across 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 (responses due February 18, 2026). The code shows substantial underlying demand from school nutrition programs but sparse direct procurement for dried clauselinas oranges as a standalone line item; vendors should position dried citrus products within broader dried-fruit or fresh-produce supply offerings to align with actual institutional buying patterns.
