UNSPSC 50335009: Dried organic blonde oranges

The variety of organic oranges known as organic blonde oranges that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50335009 Dried organic blonde oranges (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single dried-citrus product, yet the recent opportunity tagged under it—Santa Clara County's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 for dried fruits and nuts issued January 28, 2026, with responses due February 5, 2026—specifies raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans for the County Sheriff's Department of Correction at Elmwood Correctional Facility, with no dried oranges included. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error or that the code is too narrow to capture actual procurement patterns. Beyond this single detention-facility contract, the remaining opportunities in the source record are school nutrition solicitations for fresh produce, eggs, and broad grocery categories—none of which align with the dried blonde orange commodity description or support a pattern of regular state and local purchasing under this specific code.

Santa Clara County represents the only recent issuer identified with work falling nominally under or near this code, procuring dried fruits on an all-or-none basis with a five-year contract term and a local business preference of five percent. The lack of additional school district, county, city, or state-level solicitations for dried oranges or similar dried-citrus products, combined with the obvious misalignment between the code name and the actual procurement content, indicates that this code either carries minimal activity or that state and local procurement offices do not commonly use it to tag dried-fruit-and-nut purchases. Business development professionals should confirm current UNSPSC tagging practice and verify whether dried-orange supply fits within broader dried-fruit or commodity categories that see more consistent solicitation activity.
