UNSPSC 50344404: Frozen dancy tangerines

The variety of mandarin oranges and tangerines known as dancy tangerines that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344404 Frozen dancy tangerines, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains no solicitations specifically requesting frozen dancy tangerines or citrus fruits matching that specification. State and local governments use this code tier to procure specialized food items for institutional food service, yet the recent opportunities block shows activity concentrated in broader frozen-fruit categories (particularly berries), fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery procurement spanning produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry staples. When frozen citrus does appear in recent solicitations—such as the Oregon Department of Corrections' April 2026 ITB for frozen fruit berries or multiple school district requests for fresh citrus—they are procured as components of larger frozen-fruit or fresh-produce line items rather than as discrete commodity contracts for a single fruit variety. The code's narrow scope (a single frozen fruit species) sits at the commodity level of the UNSPSC hierarchy, making it least likely to anchor a standalone procurement opportunity.

The recent-opportunities block shows state and local food procurement concentrated across school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Fulton County Schools, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Henry County Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools), state health and human services facilities (Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring for state hospitals and supported living centers), and specialized programs (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Oregon Department of Corrections, Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department). Issuing bodies procure frozen fruits primarily as components of larger food-service contracts spanning 200 to 1,100+ line items under IFB and RFP notice types with response deadlines clustered from February through July 2026. Geographic activity spans Texas, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, California, Oregon, Connecticut, New Jersey, and other states. The source shows no recent standalone procurement of frozen dancy tangerines, suggesting either minimal demand for this specialized item, procurement through broader cooperative purchasing or commodity contracts listed under parent codes, or direct supplier relationships outside formal RFP cycles.
