UNSPSC 50354401: Frozen organic clauselinas oranges

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

UNSPSC 50354401 Frozen organic clauselinas oranges is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within school nutrition procurement, though recent state and local opportunities show minimal direct solicitation for this specific item. The code's nominal scope—frozen organic citrus fruit—sits within the broader landscape of school food service purchasing, where districts and municipalities procure comprehensive grocery and produce portfolios to support child nutrition programs under federal guidelines including the National School Lunch Program and Buy American provisions. State and local buyers in this space are predominantly school districts and boards of education, alongside municipal purchasing departments sourcing for school systems. These agencies routinely solicit frozen and fresh produce as line items within larger multi-category food procurements rather than as standalone specialty items; the recent solicitations show school systems consolidating dozens or hundreds of produce and grocery items into single contracts.

Geographic activity in school nutrition procurement clusters heavily in Georgia and Missouri, with additional recent activity in Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, due June 26, 2026), the Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items bid covering 900+ line items (due April 29, 2026 in St. Louis County, Missouri), the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's fresh produce contract for 72 items across 60 school sites (due April 23, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending near $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026). The City of Bridgeport's grocery procurement (due June 30, 2026) and City Schools of Decatur's frozen foods and grocery IFB (due May 15, 2026) also illustrate municipal and city school system activity. The code itself shows no recent standalone solicitations for frozen organic clauselinas oranges; vendors pursuing the category should monitor multi-item produce and grocery awards as line-item opportunities rather than expect dedicated procurements for this specific commodity.
