UNSPSC 50324425: Dried murcott tangors

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

UNSPSC 50324425 Dried murcott tangors, a Commodity-tier code, covers dried citrus fruits procured by state and local education and correctional agencies to supply cafeterias, nutrition centers, and inmate food service operations. State and local governments buy this product as part of broader fresh and dried produce purchasing for institutional food service, where it typically appears alongside other dried fruits, fresh citrus, and commodity proteins in multi-line-item solicitations. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state departments of corrections, with school nutrition operations representing the larger segment of current activity.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across multiple product categories for the 2026–27 school year, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted an IFB for 115 commodity line items including fruit and vegetable products due June 26, 2026, with delivery to the Thomas E. Carroll Nutrition Center; the State of Georgia posted an IFB for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, acting on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, issued IFB No. 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 cafeteria food product line items due May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2). All school-based solicitations enforce the Buy American provision requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products, and correctional facilities comply with USDA grade standards. Responses typically require HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, E-Verify authorization, debarment verification, nutritional analyses, and commercial general liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $1 million.
