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) does not reflect the actual work being solicited under this code. Recent state and local opportunities show no procurement activity aligned with canned or jarred organic citrus products; instead, issuing bodies are sourcing broad categories of food products—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, prepared entrees, dairy, proteins, and consumables—for institutional food service. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity, with the single opportunity explicitly tagged under this code (Oregon Department of Corrections, Solicitation S2910000017453, ITB, due July 31, 2026) soliciting canned fruit applesauce, not citrus. State and local procurement under this UNSPSC code tier does not appear to support a meaningful business development focus at this time.

The broader food procurement landscape among the issuing bodies posting these opportunities spans school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), and special-purpose districts (Muscogee County School District). Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with the largest recent opportunities in Texas institutional food service (HHSC/DSHS statewide supplemental foods estimated at $4.5 million over three years; TDCJ cafeteria foods across five distribution points; Dallas ISD various food products for school year 2026-27) and Georgia school nutrition contracts (Douglas County cooperative buying for 30 districts across two areas estimated at $5.5 million annually; Liberty County Board of Education; Hancock County; Savannah-Chatham County; Muscogee County). Solicitation methods include RFPs and ITBs with response windows typically two to four weeks. The code itself warrants continued monitoring only if canned citrus procurement emerges; prospective vendors should track the broader institutional food procurement activity under higher-tier UNSPSC family codes spanning food products and food service supplies instead.
