UNSPSC 50334439 Dried organic sunburst mandarin oranges, a Commodity code, encompasses dried citrus products and related food items sourced by state and local governments, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. Recent solicitations under this code show school districts, county boards of education, and state corrections agencies purchasing fresh and processed produce, dried fruits, and related food commodities as part of broader meal-service procurement. The Commodity sits within a family of perishable and shelf-stable food products that state and local buyers source through annual fixed-price or demand-usage contracts, typically with firm pricing for 12-month periods and renewal options spanning multiple years.

School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) posting recent bids for fresh produce, dried fruits, nuts, and grocery items. State agencies and county correctional facilities also participate: the State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Santa Clara County Department of Correction have all solicited for food commodities in the past six months. Georgia shows the heaviest recent activity, with multiple school systems bidding fresh produce and eggs through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative; activity is also present in Texas, California, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia.
