UNSPSC 50375023: Canned or jarred organic limequat oranges

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

UNSPSC 50375023 Canned or jarred organic limequat oranges is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity represents a narrow specialty food item, though the recent solicitations tagged under it span a much broader range of canned and fresh produce, packaged food products, and grocery items for institutional food service. State and local governments soliciting under this code—predominantly school districts, state corrections and health agencies, and municipal school boards—are actually procuring generalized food service supplies well beyond the specific organic citrus fruit named in the code's title. The issuing bodies include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office), county and independent school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District), municipal school boards (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). School districts represent the dominant buyer category, reflecting the volume and frequency of child nutrition and food service procurement; state corrections, health services, and supported living facilities form a secondary but consistent purchasing segment.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with heaviest documented recent solicitation volume in Georgia, Texas, and Oregon, followed by activity in Connecticut, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases of canned fruit applesauce at a historical price of $21.84 per case delivered to Salem in five truck loads, with 5% combined state-of-origin preference; the Dallas Independent School District's RFP JC250079 (posted February 22, 2026, due April 2, 2026) for various food products and two designated lots for school nutrition services delivered to the Maria Luna Food Service Facilities Warehouse; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792 (reissued with extended deadline to February 23, 2026) for 210 line items of supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years; and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts in two Georgia geographic areas with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million combined. Buy American provisions and domestic content preferences appear consistently across school district and state-agency procurements, with Oregon, Texas, and Georgia solicitations explicitly requiring or preferring domestically sourced and processed products. The code shows active and sustained procurement activity driven by recurring institutional food service cycles, particularly school nutrition and corrections-facility supply contracts on annual or multi-year terms.
