UNSPSC 50345034: Frozen pummulo oranges

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

UNSPSC 50345034 Frozen pummulo oranges, a Commodity code, sees scattered state and local procurement activity focused on institutional foodservice—primarily school nutrition programs, state hospital and residential facility kitchens, and correctional facilities—where frozen citrus and similar specialty produce items appear as line items within broader grocery or produce solicitations rather than as standalone contracts. The code itself does not dominate recent activity; when frozen citrus appears, it is typically one of dozens or hundreds of line items in comprehensive food-service RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs issued by school districts, state health and human services agencies, and county purchasing offices. Issuing bodies span school nutrition authorities (Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Henry County Schools, Early County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, and Fulton County Schools), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, New Jersey Department of Human Services), municipal agencies (City of Bridgeport, City Schools of Decatur, Hillsborough County Public Schools), and federal programs (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Among these, school districts and state institutional foodservice operations (hospitals, supported living centers, correctional facilities) represent the primary market. Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, Texas) and scattered locations in the upper Midwest and Pacific regions; Texas and Georgia appear most active in the recent posting window.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (bids due July 27, 2026), spanning 110+ line items of proteins, prepared foods, pantry staples, and beverages with a prior-year baseline of $32,226.36; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items including citrus and specialty fruits (due June 26, 2026); Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for fresh produce across 72 items delivered to 60 schools (due April 23, 2026); and the Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution serving 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 (due February 18, 2026). Frozen citrus and similar commodities are embedded within these larger solicitations under broad NIGP food-service classifications; the code shows minimal standalone procurement momentum, suggesting that vendors pursuing this Commodity should position offerings within broader produce and grocery bundles rather than expect isolated line-item demand.
