UNSPSC 50374415: Canned or jarred organic honeybelle tangelo oranges

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

UNSPSC 50374415 Canned or jarred organic honeybelle tangelo oranges is a Commodity code that encompasses preserved citrus and specialty fruit products procured by state and local governments for institutional food service operations, including school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, state hospitals, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The recent opportunities under this code show that state and local buyers source a diverse range of shelf-stable fruit products—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and general canned fruits and vegetables—rather than exclusively organic honeybelle tangelos. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, county boards of education and commissioners, city boards of education, and independent school districts, with procurement driven by ongoing food service contracts that typically span a full fiscal or academic year and require high-volume, reliable suppliers capable of meeting USDA commodity standards and delivery schedules measured in days or weeks.

Recent activity spans multiple states and jurisdictions. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (May and July 2026, responses due June 2 and July 31 respectively) with historical pricing near $21.83 per case and Oregon-resident and Oregon-fabricated preferences totaling 10 percent; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy with brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (two procurements in June and August 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide with 210 line items and a potential three-year contract value of $4.5 million (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) bid fresh produce with over 200 line items for school nutrition (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); and Austin Independent School District (Texas) requested proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). Buy American provisions and domestic content requirements appear routinely in school and corrections procurement, and awards typically go to lowest responsive and responsible bidders with evaluation criteria including price, vendor performance history, and compliance with USDA and FDA standards.
