UNSPSC 50375029: Canned or jarred organic navelina oranges

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

UNSPSC 50375029 Canned or jarred organic navelina oranges, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable citrus products that state and local governments procure as part of broader food service supply chains for institutional feeding programs. Recent state and local solicitations show the code embedded within larger food-commodity procurements spanning produce, proteins, canned goods, and consumables for correctional facilities, schools, senior services, veterans' homes, and state health institutions. The actual buying reflects institutional food service: school nutrition departments, county senior-services operations, state correctional and health facilities, and municipal education boards source canned fruit—including applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce—as components of meal programs or emergency food assistance. Issuing bodies are predominantly state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia), county boards of education and commissioners (Hancock County Schools, Gwinnett County), municipal school districts (Austin ISD, Bridgeport Board of Education), and specialized public entities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Illinois appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple quarterly food-service solicitations for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy.

Geographic activity clusters in the South and West: Texas, Georgia, and Oregon show sustained procurement volume, with Illinois, Connecticut, and additional states represented in the recent sample. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 IFB for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (including canned vegetables and proteins) with a response date of October 19, 2026, delivered to Lawrenceville, Georgia; Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases to Salem) with bids due July 31, 2026, at $21.84 per case historical pricing; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables (210 line items statewide, with a March 19, 2026 bid deadline and maximum contract value of $4.5 million over three years); and Austin Independent School District's July 2026 RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps for central-warehouse delivery. Buy American or domestic-content provisions appear in school-district procurements; Oregon applies a combined 10 percent state-preference incentive (5 percent for Oregon-fabricated goods, 5 percent for Oregon-headquartered vendors); and Texas, Connecticut, and Georgia enforce similar domestic-content rules under federal school-lunch legislation. Delivery typically occurs on FOB Destination terms with firm fixed pricing. Contract terms range from single-quarter to multi-year with renewal options, and awards commonly go to lowest responsive and responsible bidders or best-value evaluations incorporating vendor performance history.
