UNSPSC 50345024: Frozen marr oranges

The variety of oranges known as marr oranges that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345024 Frozen marr oranges is a Commodity code used by state and local governments to classify procurement of frozen citrus and specialized frozen fruit products for institutional food service and nutrition programs. The code sees active but sparse use in state and local purchasing, primarily by state institutions, school districts, and social-service agencies acquiring shelf-stable and frozen protein, produce, and prepared foods for cafeteria, detention, and residential operations. Recent opportunities under this code and related frozen-fruit categories show state and local bodies procuring frozen vegetables, apples, and mixed produce items as components of larger institutional food supply contracts rather than as standalone citrus-specific line items; the code itself has generated minimal recent activity specific to frozen marred oranges, with broader frozen-fruit and frozen-vegetable solicitations dominating the landscape.

State health and human services commissions in Texas, institutional food-service divisions in Georgia, school nutrition programs in Mississippi and Georgia, and county board purchasing offices in Georgia and New Jersey issue the majority of recent opportunities touching frozen commodity codes. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs (HHS0017338, HHS0017660V2, HHS0017799, HHS0017449, HHS0016792V2) for frozen food products and supplemental groceries serving state hospitals and state supported living centers with bids due between July and August 2026, collectively spanning hundreds of line items and estimated volumes reaching $9 million annually on the frozen-food family contracts alone. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited 40,000 pounds of frozen sliced or diced apples (S2910000017684) with bids due August 19, 2026, offering Oregon goods and resident-bidder preferences up to 10 percent combined. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) requested fresh and frozen produce for the 2026–27 school year (PE67080NONST2027000000013) with bids due June 26, 2026, specifying over 200 line items across apple varieties, berries, and root vegetables. The New Jersey Department of Human Services Division of Family Development posted a rebid for frozen mixed vegetables (26DPP01307) with response due June 17, 2026. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) sought food and non-food products for school nutrition programs (PE55045NONST2027000000006) with bids due June 8, 2026, emphasizing domestic sourcing and whole-grain compliance. Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and New Jersey, with school districts and state institutional food-service operations driving the bulk of procurement volume under frozen-commodity categories.
