UNSPSC 50335044: Dried organic washington navel oranges

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

UNSPSC 50335044 Dried organic Washington navel oranges is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure fresh produce for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state institutional feeding operations under this code—though recent solicitations show the bulk of activity targeting fresh citrus, stone fruits, berries, and root vegetables as part of much broader fresh-produce buys rather than dried oranges specifically. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across apple varieties, citrus, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and specialty fruits for the 2026–27 school year, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted a commodities bid June 2, 2026, covering 115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products, also due June 26, 2026. Both solicitations required minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed products under the Buy American provision. The State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) also solicited food and cafeteria products in May and early June 2026, with TDCJ's IFB covering approximately 382 line items of proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and fresh and canned vegetables across multiple warehouse locations in Texas.

School districts and state agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with Georgia and Texas showing the most recent activity. Hancock County Schools, the City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center, the State of Georgia, and TDCJ are the primary recent buyers. Delivery requirements cluster around school nutrition centers and institutional warehouses, with firm-fixed pricing for full contract periods and Buy American compliance as a standard requirement. However, the recent opportunities listed under this code emphasize broad fresh-produce and general-commodities procurements rather than dried organic Washington navel oranges specifically; the code assignment appears misaligned with the actual scope of work being bought, suggesting limited current demand for dried oranges as a standalone line item in state and local school and institutional feeding programs.
