UNSPSC 50345029: Frozen navelina oranges

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

UNSPSC 50345029 Frozen navelina oranges is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local food procurement activity under this classification. The recent solicitations tagged with this code overwhelmingly pursue shelf-stable and frozen institutional food products—proteins, dairy, condiments, prepared entrees, vegetables, grains, beverages, and disposables—rather than a specific citrus product. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education, county boards of commissioners, city procurement offices, and nonprofit Head Start and community services agencies. Repeat buyers include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, which has posted multiple institutional food service RFPs and IFBs for state hospitals and state-supported living centers, and several county and city school districts purchasing for National School Lunch Program compliance.
