UNSPSC 50354437: Frozen organic sampson tangelo oranges

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

UNSPSC 50354437 Frozen organic Sampson tangelo oranges is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single frozen citrus product, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows substantial mismatch. The available opportunities reflect broad school nutrition solicitations for multi-category food and grocery procurement — including fresh produce, frozen products, dairy, proteins, grains, condiments, and supplies — rather than purchases of frozen oranges specifically. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and boards of education across multiple states, with occasional municipal and state-level food service procurement. Early County Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, City Schools of Decatur, Douglas County School System, and the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education) all posted solicitations in this code family during the first half of 2026, indicating that school nutrition programs dominate the buyer pool. These districts typically serve 6,900 to 25,500 students and procure food annually to support National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary presence in Connecticut and likely other states reflected in the State of Georgia statewide solicitation. Recent opportunities include the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026), the Rockwood R-VI School District electronic bid for grocery items across 900+ line items (due April 29, 2026 through NUTRIKIDS), the City Schools of Decatur IFB for frozen foods and grocery items across ten school sites (due May 15, 2026 through Bonfire), the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System bid for fresh produce covering 72 items and 60 school sites (due April 23, 2026 through Bonfire), and the Douglas County School System RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (due March 4, 2026). All solicitations require firm pricing inclusive of packing and transportation, HACCP plans, Buy American compliance, and liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $2 million per occurrence. The code shows no recent activity specific to frozen oranges; business development should treat this code as functionally inactive for single-commodity frozen citrus procurement and instead track broader school nutrition RFPs if pursuing education-sector food service opportunities.
