UNSPSC 50355034: Frozen organic pummulo oranges

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

UNSPSC 50355034 Frozen organic pummulo oranges, a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity in the source records. The nine most recent opportunities tagged under this code or related produce categories show no solicitations specifically for frozen organic pummulo oranges. Instead, school districts and municipalities across Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri are actively buying fresh produce, frozen foods, grocery items, and eggs for child nutrition programs—all significantly broader in scope than the code's nominal description. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (posting June 30, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia (June 26 deadline), and Early County Board of Education (June 8 deadline) exemplify this pattern, each issuing IFBs for comprehensive fresh produce and grocery catalogs spanning 200 to 1,100 line items across apples, citrus, vegetables, berries, and frozen staples—not specialty frozen citrus products. When a code's taxonomy name bears little relationship to what jurisdictions actually procure under it, the code signals either a persistent classification mismatch in state and local procurement systems or a category so narrow that recent demand is effectively zero.

The recent-opportunity block shows consistent activity among school districts in the Southeast, particularly Georgia and Missouri, where child nutrition programs represent the primary buying pattern. The Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County (bid due April 29, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (April 23 deadline), and Douglas County School System operating through the GEC Buying Cooperative (RFP deadlines in February and March 2026) account for multiple entries. Contract terms are uniform across all nine opportunities: firm pricing, July 1 through June 30 annual cycles, Buy American compliance with 51 percent domestic content minimums, HACCP plans, and delivery to school sites with no fuel surcharges. Estimated spending ranges from $4.4 million (Douglas County Area One fresh produce and eggs through GEC) to $9 million (Douglas County food supply and distribution). Geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia and lighter in Connecticut and Missouri, with no opportunities posted west of the Mississippi or in other regions. This code, as currently tagged in state and local systems, does not support a meaningful business development strategy for frozen organic pummulo oranges.
