UNSPSC 50334440: Dried organic tangelos

The fruit of a hybrid between a tangerine or mandarin orange and a grapefruit that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334440 Dried organic tangelos, a Commodity code, represents fresh produce procurements by school districts and correctional agencies, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal activity specifically tied to dried tangelos themselves. State and local governments under this code buy fresh and dried fruits for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state agency cafeterias. The issuing bodies are school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state agencies (Georgia and Texas), and correctional authorities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). School nutrition programs dominate the recent opportunities, driven by Buy American requirements under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act mandating minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition (Hancock County Board of Education, IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including citrus, berries, and vegetables, response due June 26, 2026), City of Bridgeport commodities procurement (Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center, electronic bid submission due June 26, 2026 for 115 line items across eggs, poultry, produce, and dairy), and Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products (Texas Comptroller Statewide Procurement Division, IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items including proteins, frozen entrees, and produce, response extended to May 4, 2026). A separate TDCJ bid (IW236532) targeted whole pitted dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality with 1,400-box minimum order to the Corpus location, though that bid opening closed February 20, 2026. School lunch programs require HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and firm pricing through the contract period with transportation included; correctional facilities specify USDA grade compliance and FOB destination delivery.
