UNSPSC 50355018: Frozen organic jincheng oranges

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

UNSPSC 50355018 Frozen organic jincheng oranges (Commodity) covers frozen citrus fruit products purchased by state and local school districts and food service operations, though the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show minimal direct alignment with the narrow commodity definition. The most recent opportunities reflect much broader school nutrition procurement activity—frozen foods, fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery sourcing for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations—rather than the specialized category of frozen organic jincheng oranges specifically. School districts and county boards of education in Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Hancock County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, Decatur City Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Early County Board of Education, and the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases all posting nutrition-related contracts in the past three months. These districts typically procure across 200+ fresh produce line items, 300+ food products, or 900+ grocery items annually to serve thousands of meal participants daily.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with secondary presence in Connecticut and Missouri. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) issued an IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items due June 30, 2026, requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content and compliance with Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce for 2026-27 via IFB due June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items and delivery to three school locations. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two), sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) requested line-item bids for grocery items with electronic submission via NUTRIKIDS system due April 29, 2026. The code itself shows little recent dedicated activity specifically for frozen organic jincheng oranges; the broader grocery and produce procurements suggest frozen citrus products are purchased as component line items within multi-hundred-item school nutrition contracts rather than as standalone specialty commodities.
