UNSPSC 50375005: Canned or jarred organic bergamot oranges

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

UNSPSC 50375005 Canned or jarred organic bergamot oranges (Commodity) captures state and local procurement for packaged fruit products delivered to institutional food service operations, though the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for bergamot oranges and instead reflects a broader pattern of canned and fresh fruit procurement across correctional facilities, school districts, health and human services centers, and state agencies. The code's nominal scope and recent market activity diverge sharply — state and local buyers are actively soliciting canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce (apples, berries, citrus, vegetables), and mixed grocery bundles for child nutrition programs and institutional food service, but bergamot orange solicitations do not appear in the recent record. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Dallas Independent School District (Texas) each conducting multiple food procurement cycles. State corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and city school nutrition programs (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education) round out the buyer base. Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest — Georgia, Texas, and Missouri see the heaviest recent solicitation volume — with secondary activity in Oregon, Virginia, Connecticut, and Illinois.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (due July 31, 2026) for 4,760 cases of canned fruit applesauce under firm, fixed pricing with 5% Oregon-goods and 5% Oregon-headquartered-bidder preferences stacked to 10%, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period guideline value of $1.5 million and contract renewal options through 2028. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) solicits over 200 line items of fresh produce with Buy American domestic-content minimums of 51 percent for processed items and firm-fixed pricing across a July 2026–June 2027 term. Douglas County School System (Georgia) RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) spans fresh produce and eggs across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two) and cost-plus net-price structures prohibited. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to bergamot oranges specifically; procurement under this code in practice targets commodity and specialty fruit products across a wide institutional food service base, with school district nutrition programs and state agencies representing the primary customer segment.
