UNSPSC 50364417: Canned or jarred kinnow oranges

The variety of mandarin oranges and tangerines known as kinnow oranges that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50364417 Canned or jarred kinnow oranges is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement today. Recent opportunities tagged to this code show state and local governments procuring canned and packaged fruit products for institutional food service—including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-service consumables—rather than the specific citrus commodity the code name denotes. Oregon Department of Corrections, the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and multiple school districts and county education boards are the primary issuing bodies, with school nutrition programs driving the majority of activity. These buyers source food and consumables through ITBs, RFPs, and IFBs, typically for annual contract periods running July through June and including pricing firm through the term, FOB destination delivery, and Buy American compliance where applicable.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest, with recent solicitations from Oregon, Illinois, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (canned applesauce, 4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, with 5 percent state-goods and state-resident preferences totaling 10 percent); Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 (dried fruit bars and apple crisps, due July 16, 2026); Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (food and consumables for state supported living center and health services, approximately $1.5 million historical value, due July 13, 2026); and Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 (fresh produce with over 200 line items across 2026-27 school year, due June 26, 2026, requiring 51 percent domestic content). State and local procurement under codes tagged to this family shows steady volume, with school-district nutrition programs and institutional food-service operations as the largest customer segment and competitive pricing, demonstrated supplier capacity, and compliance with nutrition standards and procurement preferences as standard award drivers.
