UNSPSC 50334441: Dried organic tangerina oranges

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

UNSPSC 50334441 Dried organic tangerina oranges is a Commodity code that state and local procurement offices tag nominally for preserved citrus fruit items, but recent solicitation activity shows minimal actual demand for dried tangerines specifically. Instead, the code appears in school district and correctional facility food service buys that span broad fresh and processed produce categories—fresh citrus, dried fruits more generally (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends), and comprehensive grocery lines that include citrus among dozens of other produce and protein items. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with individual district nutrition programs (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia, Liberty County in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Douglas County in Georgia) and cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts) posting the most recent sealed bids. State agencies and county corrections also buy under related codes—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department have both issued recent ITBs and IFBs for dried fruits and nuts, though the Santa Clara County procurement explicitly names dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix, not tangerines. Geographic activity clusters in Georgia, Texas, California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with Georgia school systems representing the highest concentration of recent activity.

Representative recent opportunities reveal the actual scope: Hancock County Board of Education posted IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) for over 200 fresh produce line items spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus fruits, melons, leafy greens, peppers, and tomatoes for July 2026 through June 2027 delivery to three school sites; Fairfax County Public Schools issued IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) for a Master Grocery K-12 term contract covering food products for 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens with weekly deliveries July 2026 through June 2027; and the Douglas County School System (on behalf of the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts) issued RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Santa Clara County, California issued ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 (due February 5, 2026) for dried fruits and nuts including raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix for the Sheriff's Department Correctional Facility—a rare match to the dried-fruit family, though tangerines were not among the five line items named. Buy American provisions, USDA compliance, HACCP and food safety standards, firm fixed pricing, and Net 30 to Net 45 payment terms are standard across all these solicitations; most school districts reserve award rights to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis and include renewal options for additional one-year terms.
