UNSPSC 50325041: Dried shamouti jaffa oranges

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

UNSPSC 50325041 Dried shamouti jaffa oranges, a Commodity code, covers dried citrus fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations, principally school nutrition programs and correctional facility cafeterias. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show school districts and state corrections departments buying fresh produce, processed foods, and specialty items alongside dried fruits as part of broader nutrition procurement. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education), state education agencies and corrections departments (Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal purchasing offices acting on behalf of education and corrections entities. The Buy American Provision requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products appears consistently across education-sector solicitations, and MBE/CBE certifications apply where jurisdictions adopt local preference ordinances.

Georgia and Texas dominate recent activity. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, requesting fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year with a response deadline of June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items including citrus, berries, vegetables, and melons across three school delivery sites. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut posted IFB BNB053266 on June 2, 2026, for commodities supplying the Board of Education Nutrition Center with a June 26, 2026 deadline and 115 line items covering eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce. The State of Georgia issued solicitation PE55645NONST2026000000009 on May 15, 2026, for food, supplies, and kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026. The code shows modest recent activity concentrated in education and corrections nutrition procurement; no opportunities specifically isolating dried shamouti jaffa oranges appear in the recent record.
