UNSPSC 50375035: Canned or jarred organic rhode red oranges

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

UNSPSC 50375035, Canned or jarred organic Rhode red oranges (Commodity), sees limited direct activity in state and local procurement, with recent opportunities tagged to this code actually soliciting broader shelf-stable and fresh produce categories rather than this specific citrus product. The code's nominal scope—canned or jarred organic Rhode red oranges—does not align with the recent state and local opportunities available; those solicitations cover general food service procurement for institutional nutrition programs, institutional cafeterias, state hospitals, supported living centers, and school district food service operations, encompassing canned vegetables, fruits, applesauce, proteins, dairy, and fresh produce across multiple line items rather than a single citrus commodity.

Issuing bodies soliciting under related food procurement include county boards of education and county purchasing offices (Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Georgia), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission; State of Georgia), state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections; Texas Department of Criminal Justice), independent school districts (Austin Independent School District, Texas; City of Bridgeport Board of Education, Connecticut), and state veterans facilities (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy). Recent opportunities span Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce in two truck loads (due June 2, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide across 210 line items (due March 19, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $4,500,000 over three years). The code shows no recent opportunities specifically soliciting canned or jarred organic Rhode red oranges as a distinct line item.
