UNSPSC 50384808: Fortune orange purees

The variety of mandarin oranges and tangerines known as fortune oranges which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50384808 Fortune orange purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the food products state and local governments are actually procuring under recent solicitations tagged to it. The recent opportunities show no current demand for fortune orange purees; instead, issuing bodies are sourcing canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and broad-spectrum food service supplies for correctional facilities, schools, and state supported living centers. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests limited or no current market for fortune orange purees in state and local contracting.

Recent opportunities posted under this code span school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Douglas County School System), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia Department of Education, State of Georgia), and smaller jurisdictions (Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport, Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (due June 26, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 cooperative member districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026). The code appears to serve as a catch-all classification for diverse fruit products and food service items rather than a precise descriptor of procurement demand, signaling weak alignment between taxonomy and actual buying behavior.
