UNSPSC 50325036: Dried roble oranges

The variety of oranges known as roble oranges that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325036 Dried roble oranges (Commodity) does not reflect the procurement activity actually occurring under this code. The recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code overwhelmingly center on school nutrition food service procurement—fresh produce, eggs, cafeteria staples, dried fruits, and general grocery items for K-12 districts and correctional facilities—rather than dried roble oranges specifically. The code appears to be a misapplication by issuing bodies for broader fresh and processed produce categories. State and local procurement under this code is driven by school districts (Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and Rockwood R-VI School District), departments of criminal justice (Texas TDCJ, County of Santa Clara Sheriff's Department), and state procurement offices (Georgia, Texas Comptroller). The typical procurement spans dozens to hundreds of line items including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, specialty fruits (kiwis, mangos, papayas), dairy products, proteins, grains, condiments, and prepared entrees—with dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends) and nuts appearing in several recent awards.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Virginia, Missouri, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools (Georgia) IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with bids due June 26, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) Master Grocery K-12 IFB covering grocery product supply and delivery to 45 schools with bids due April 27, 2026; Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) soliciting over 900 grocery line items for the 2026-27 school year with bids due April 29, 2026; Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia) IFB for over 400 food items with bids due April 29, 2026; and Santa Clara County (California) ITB for dried fruits and nuts to correctional facilities with bids due February 5, 2026. Most school district contracts run July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with all requiring Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), firm fixed pricing, and weekly delivery to multiple school sites. School districts frequently reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis, and most employ demand-usage structures with estimated quantities subject to change.
