UNSPSC 50365038: Canned or jarred sanguine oranges

The variety of oranges known as sanguine oranges that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365038 Canned or jarred sanguine oranges is a Commodity code representing a narrow food product line that state and local governments procure sparingly—the recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for canned or jarred citrus fruits. Instead, issuing bodies are competing for canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad-spectrum food and consumable products across food service, school nutrition, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers. The code's scope diverges markedly from recent purchasing activity: state and local jurisdictions are buying diverse food service and nutrition items across multiple product categories, not the specific commodity named in the code. The Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Health and Human Services Commission are among the visible repeat buyers, but activity is concentrated in school districts and education-related nutrition programs rather than focused procurement of canned citrus.

Geographic spread of the visible food procurement activity spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Illinois, and Virginia, with school districts and state agencies driving the bulk of solicitations between February and July 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce due July 31, 2026 (4,760 cases, FOB Salem with Oregon preferences totaling 10%), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products due July 13, 2026 with a prior-period value of $1.5 million, and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million combined (Area One $4.4 million, Area Two $1.1 million). The code shows little relevant recent activity; the mismatch between the commodity name and the actual food service and nutrition procurement underway suggests that state and local buyers are using broader UNSPSC family or class codes to classify their opportunities rather than this narrow commodity designation.
