UNSPSC 50354402 Frozen organic clementine tangerines is a Commodity code that sits at the most granular tier of the taxonomy, yet state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent alignment with the specific product name. The recent opportunities posted under this code actually encompass broad school nutrition procurement—grocery items, fresh produce, frozen foods, and food service distribution—rather than frozen organic clementines specifically. School districts and school nutrition programs are the primary issuing bodies soliciting under this code tier, as evidenced by solicitations from the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (for Bridgeport Board of Education), Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, the Rockwood R-VI School District, the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and the Douglas County School System, all seeking multiple product categories to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. State-level procurement also appears, with Georgia posting a food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation. The pattern suggests this Commodity code may be misapplied to general school food service categories rather than reserved exclusively for frozen organic clementines.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri. Representative opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative, issued in February 2026 with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026, covering fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; the Rockwood R-VI School District's procurement of over 900 line items of grocery items for the 2026-27 school year, with electronic bids due April 29, 2026; and the City of Bridgeport's solicitation for over 1,100 line items of grocery items for Bridgeport Board of Education, with electronic bids due June 30, 2026. All solicitations emphasize Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products where applicable), HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, firm fixed pricing throughout the contract period, and delivery to central warehouses or school sites Monday through Friday. School districts reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis, and vendors must carry liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $2,000,000 depending on the issuing body.
