UNSPSC 50374409: Canned or jarred organic fremont mandarin oranges

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

UNSPSC 50374409 Canned or jarred organic fremont mandarin oranges is a Commodity code that frames a narrow product line, yet state and local procurement activity under this specific code is sparse; the recent solicitations tagged to it encompass a far broader scope of shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional food service, not mandarin oranges specifically. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables) due October 19, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for food and consumable products (NIGP Classes 380, 385, 390, and 393) for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical value of $1.5 million annually, due July 13, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut issued a bid for 115 line items of mixed commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, due June 26, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products spanning proteins, dairy, grains, vegetables, and fruits across five geographic distribution areas, due May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitation content suggests that procurement systems are tagging broad institutional food service categories to this narrow product code rather than sourcing mandarin oranges specifically.

Issuing bodies active under this code span county boards of education and departments of community services (Georgia), state departments of corrections (Oregon, Texas), state health and human services agencies (Texas, Illinois), school districts (Austin ISD, Hancock County Schools, City of Bridgeport), and state procurement offices on behalf of veterans homes and state supported living centers. Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Oregon, and Illinois. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted multiple canned applesauce ITBs (June 2026 and July 2026) with historical pricing around $21.82–$21.84 per case and Oregon commodity preferences of 5 percent each for state-fabricated goods and resident-headquartered bidders. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce for school nutrition with over 200 line items across apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, and specialty fruits, due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites through June 30, 2027. Austin Independent School District issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for food service, due July 16, 2026. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple brand-specific and brand-or-equal weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy for quarterly periods throughout 2026, with proposals due in June and August. These opportunities reflect sustained institutional demand for food service across correctional facilities, veterans homes, state supported living centers, and school nutrition programs, but tagged opportunities do not isolate organic mandarin oranges as a distinct procurement category.
