UNSPSC 50375016: Canned or jarred organic hamlin oranges

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

UNSPSC 50375016 Canned or jarred organic Hamlin oranges is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialty canned fruit products, though recent solicitations under this code reveal substantial activity in broader canned and fresh fruit procurement rather than the narrow organic citrus category the code nominally describes. State and local governments buying under this code span school districts, correctional departments, health and human services agencies, and municipal nutrition programs seeking canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and assorted food products for inmate meals, student lunch programs, and institutional food service. The issuing-body mix includes state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC), independent school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, and multiple Georgia county systems), county school boards (Hancock County, Liberty County, Douglas County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County), and municipal education agencies (City of Bridgeport Board of Education). Corrections and institutional food service represent a material portion of recent activity, alongside school nutrition procurement for the 2026–27 school year.

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with school-year solicitations (typically July 2026 through June 2027) driving volume in spring and early summer. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, under a 5% Oregon-goods preference and 5% Oregon-headquartered-bidder preference with historical pricing at $21.84 per case; the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 13, 2026, with estimated prior-period value of $1.5 million and multi-year renewal options; the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative due March 4, 2026, covering 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; and the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce covering over 200 line items due June 26, 2026, with firm pricing for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 delivery to three school locations. Buy American provisions requiring 51% domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products and USDA compliance appear consistently across school district solicitations; prevailing wage and set-aside language vary by jurisdiction but are absent from most school nutrition procurements.
