UNSPSC 50355024: Frozen organic marr oranges

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

UNSPSC 50355024 Frozen organic marr oranges (Commodity) covers fresh and frozen fruit products purchased by state and local governments for institutional food service and nutrition programs. State and local procurement activity under this code centers on food supply contracts for school districts, county nutrition departments, and state food service operations. Recent opportunities reflect a mix of standalone frozen fruit procurements and larger aggregate food-supply solicitations that include frozen produce as line items within broader menus of shelf-stable, fresh, and frozen provisions. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with individual boards of education posting IFBs for multi-hundred-item food contracts that span produce, proteins, dairy, and supplies; county and state agencies also solicit under this code for senior services, community nutrition programs, and centralized institutional food service. The scope of work encompasses frozen fruit supplied in institutional case sizes with delivery to school central warehouses and designated meal-service sites, firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges, compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content where applicable), USDA whole-food and nutrition standards, and HACCP food-safety documentation.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and Connecticut school districts. Hancock County Board of Education posted IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) for over 200 line items of fresh produce including citrus and berries for the 2026–27 school year; Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food supplies supporting the National School Lunch Program across three schools. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases solicited bids on grocery items (due June 30, 2026) for the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services Department, spanning over 1,100 line items with compliance to Title VII CFR food-service and nutrition regulations. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services, with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026). School-district and county-government buyers dominate the recent pipeline; response windows typically compress to two to four weeks from posting to close.
