UNSPSC 50344417: Frozen kinnow oranges

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

UNSPSC 50344417 Frozen kinnow oranges, a Commodity code, encompasses frozen citrus products supplied to state and local government institutions—primarily corrections facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, school districts, and Head Start programs. Recent solicitations show the code sitting within a broader frozen produce and grocery procurement ecosystem where citrus items anchor larger food service contracts rather than stand alone; state and local buyers rarely solicit frozen kinnow oranges as a standalone line item, instead bundling them into comprehensive frozen fruit, produce, or grocery aggregations that span dozens or hundreds of SKUs.

State and local activity under this code concentrates in Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring for state hospitals and supported living centers), Georgia (school districts including Hancock County, Early County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County), and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), with smaller recent activity in Missouri, Connecticut, Oregon, and California. Issuing bodies are predominantly state agencies (HHSC, DSHS, state departments of corrections), school districts and boards of education, and county/municipal corrections facilities. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Douglas County School System appear as repeat buyers for food service contracts that would encompass frozen citrus. Representative recent opportunities show frozen fruit and citrus appearing as minor components within much larger procurements: the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017660 (Big Spring State Hospital grocery contract, due July 27, 2026, historical spend $32,226 annually across 110+ line items) and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 (Food Supply and Distribution Services, due February 18, 2026, estimated $9 million annual spend across 32,000 daily meals). Frozen kinnow oranges do not appear as a named or distinct line item in posted recent opportunities; activity is inferred from the broader citrus and frozen fruit categories nested in food service supply contracts.
