UNSPSC 50324412: Dried honey mandarin oranges

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

UNSPSC 50324412 Dried honey mandarin oranges is a Commodity code that state and local governments rarely procure as a standalone product line. Recent school district and correctional facility food-service solicitations show no direct purchasing activity for dried honey mandarin oranges specifically. The recent opportunities block contains one reference to dried fruits (in Santa Clara County's dried fruits and nuts procurement for the Sheriff's Department Correction facility), but that solicitation targets dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, walnuts, and pecans—not mandarin oranges. The remaining recent opportunities, posted between January and June 2026, reflect the dominant procurement pattern under food-service categories: school nutrition programs and institutional food services across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Texas, and Virginia soliciting fresh produce, main-line grocery items, and complete food-service supply contracts. These districts and authorities buy fresh fruits and vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared entrees in volume, but the specificity of dried honey mandarin oranges as a product does not appear in any of the recent bids reviewed.

State and local food-service procurement is concentrated among school districts (Hancock County Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipal education authorities (City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center), state-level facilities (Georgia Department of Education, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and county corrections (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department). Most of these solicitations use IFB or RFP notice types with firm-fixed pricing and annual contract terms running July 1 through June 30. Buy American provisions requiring domestic agricultural commodities and processed products with at least 51 percent domestic content are standard across these opportunities. No recent state or local procurement activity specifically targets dried honey mandarin oranges; vendors pursuing this commodity code should monitor school districts' fresh-produce and specialty-fruit solicitations for future opportunities or consider whether their product fits broader fruit-supply or snack-item line-item categories in larger institutional food-service contracts.
