UNSPSC 50374422 Canned or jarred organic minneola tangelo oranges is a Commodity code that captures fresh-produce items and processed fruit products supplied to state and local institutional food-service operations—schools, corrections facilities, health and human services centers, and county social-service departments. Recent state and local solicitations show the code in practical use across broad food-service procurement, though they span much wider product scope than the code's nominal name suggests: Gwinnett County (Georgia) solicited 35 line items of shelf-stable foods including canned proteins, vegetables, and sauces; the Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned applesauce; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and processed foods for state hospitals and supported-living centers; and Austin Independent School District sought dried fruit bars and apple crisps. The issuing bodies are a mix of state departments, county boards of education, county purchasing offices, city school boards, and state health/human-services agencies, with repeat activity from the State of Illinois (multiple quarterly food orders for the Veterans Home at Quincy) and the Oregon Department of Corrections (two applesauce bids within three months).

Geographic activity is concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest, with Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County schools, State of Georgia), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Austin ISD), Illinois (Chief Procurement Office), and Oregon (Department of Corrections) all posting within the past six months. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (response due October 19, 2026), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-specific weekly food orders for the Veterans Home at Quincy (multiple quarterly cycles with August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026 response dates), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, bid closing July 31, 2026, with a 10 percent combined Oregon-goods and Oregon-bidder preference), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported-living centers statewide under a potential three-year contract valued up to $4.5 million (IFB HHS0016792V2, response deadline March 19, 2026).
