UNSPSC 50324415: Dried honeybelle tangelo oranges

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

UNSPSC 50324415 Dried honeybelle tangelo oranges (Commodity) describes a narrow agricultural product category that state and local procurement offices rarely solicit directly by name. The recent opportunities block contains no active solicitations specifically for dried honeybelle tangelo oranges; instead, the twelve recent state and local contract opportunities span fresh produce, grocery items, cafeteria food products, and dried fruits and nuts for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, California, Texas, and Virginia. The code's nominal scope does not align with the actual work being bought in the recent market—school districts and public agencies are purchasing fresh produce assortments (apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus fruits, root vegetables), proteins, dairy, grains, and dried fruits in bulk categories, not dried tangelos as a distinct line item. Issuing bodies soliciting under this broad food-service umbrella include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipal governments (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), county correctional facilities (County of Santa Clara, California; Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement divisions (State of Georgia). Repeat buyers include multiple Georgia school districts and the Douglas County School System, which issued two separate RFPs in January and February 2026 for food supply and fresh produce.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Georgia, with six of the twelve opportunities originating from Georgia school districts and state agencies, followed by scattered activity in Connecticut, Missouri, California, Texas, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition (Georgia) issuing an IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response deadline and over 200 line items spanning multiple apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, and specialty items for delivery to three school locations July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases soliciting commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center with electronic submission due June 26, 2026 and 115 line items across eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products; Douglas County School System issuing an RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara, California issuing an ITB for dried fruits and nuts (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans) to supply a correctional facility with five-year contract terms and bids due February 5, 2026. All solicitations impose Buy American requirements, firm pricing for the contract term, and compliance with USDA and food safety standards including HACCP plans and nutritional specifications.
