UNSPSC 50334404: Dried organic dancy tangerines

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

UNSPSC 50334404 Dried organic dancy tangerines is a Commodity code that encompasses dried fruit products procured by state and local school nutrition programs, corrections systems, and other public food service operations. State and local governments actually buy this code as part of broader fresh and processed produce solicitations for cafeteria meal planning and institutional food service. The recent opportunities show school districts and state corrections departments bundling dried fruit items (including prunes and other dried fruits) within larger food commodities RFQs and IFBs that span proteins, vegetables, grains, and specialty items. Issuing bodies include county and city school boards, state departments of education procurement offices, and state corrections departments operating multi-location food service networks. The code appears in consolidated procurement vehicles where dried fruit represents one line item among dozens or hundreds of food categories rather than as standalone solicitations focused exclusively on dried tangerines.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for Fresh Produce SY27 due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables for three school delivery sites across the 2026–27 contract year. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases requested bids on commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, also due June 26, 2026, encompassing 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products under Buy American requirements. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB No. 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum), with approximately 382 line items delivered to six TDCJ warehouse locations. A separate TDCJ bid (IW236532) for dried prunes alone, due February 20, 2026, required U.S. Grade B quality in 60–70 count size, 1,400 boxes minimum to the Corpus location. All school nutrition and corrections food solicitations enforce Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products.
