UNSPSC 50374417: Canned or jarred organic kinnow oranges

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

UNSPSC 50374417 Canned or jarred organic kinnow oranges is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products under this code as part of broader food service operations for schools, corrections facilities, state hospitals, social service programs, and public institutions. Recent opportunities show government buyers soliciting canned applesauce, canned fruit, and broader fresh and processed fruit lines as components of institutional nutrition and cafeteria supply contracts rather than organic kinnow oranges specifically. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, county boards of education and county social services departments, city school districts, and municipal nutrition centers. Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut dominate recent activity, with individual school districts and state institutional facilities driving volume.

Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (two separate bids in May and July 2026, approximately 1,900 to 4,700 cases each at historical pricing near $21.83 per case), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items including multiple citrus varieties (due June 26, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (210 line items, maximum contract value $4.5 million over three years, bid deadline March 19, 2026), and the City of Bridgeport's bid for commodities to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center (115 line items, due June 26, 2026). The code shows activity primarily in institutional food service procurement where canned fruit products compete alongside fresh and frozen alternatives; organic or brand-specific kinnow orange solicitations do not appear in recent state and local notices, suggesting this particular commodity sees minimal procurement volume under the code's scope.
