UNSPSC 50335012: Dried organic cara cara oranges

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

UNSPSC 50335012 Dried organic cara cara oranges is a Commodity code that encompasses dried citrus fruit products procured by state and local governments, primarily school districts and correctional facilities for nutrition programs. The recent solicitations under this code show that state and local buyers source dried fruits and related produce items as components of broader fresh and dried produce supply contracts, particularly for school nutrition programs and institutional food services. While the code's nominal scope targets dried cara cara oranges specifically, actual procurement activity reflects a much wider dried fruit portfolio—raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, and other dried fruits—often bundled with fresh produce, eggs, and staple groceries in consolidated nutrition supply contracts. School districts dominate buying activity under related dried produce line items, supplemented by corrections departments and county welfare agencies.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, with multiple school districts (Hancock County, Liberty County, Douglas County, and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools) issuing recent solicitations for fresh and dried produce. California (Santa Clara County Correctional Facility), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport Board of Education), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Texas (Department of Criminal Justice), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools) show secondary activity. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (IFB, due June 26, 2026) encompassing over 200 fresh produce line items with delivery to three school locations; Santa Clara County's Dried Fruits and Nuts ITB (due February 5, 2026) for raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans supporting correctional food services; and Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items 2026-2027 (due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items including dried fruits as components of consolidated grocery supply. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products appear consistently across school nutrition solicitations. Contract terms typically run July 1 through June 30 with firm fixed pricing and renewal options at the buyer's discretion.
