UNSPSC 50335032: Dried organic parson brown oranges

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

UNSPSC 50335032 Dried organic parson brown oranges is a Commodity code that encompasses procurement of dried citrus products for institutional food service, though recent state and local activity under this code focuses more broadly on fresh and processed produce and food commodities for school nutrition programs and criminal justice facilities. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state departments (Georgia Department of Education and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), and municipal governments (City of Bridgeport). School nutrition programs and correctional food service dominate the buy, with vendors supplying 200+ line items spanning fresh produce, dairy, proteins, grains, and specialty items to multiple delivery locations within each jurisdiction. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products are standard; HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, debarment verification, and anti-collusion certifications are typical vendor requirements.
