UNSPSC 50384809: Fremont mandarin orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50384809 Fremont mandarin orange purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly tied to the code's nominal scope. The single recent opportunity matching the code designation—Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026, for canned fruit applesauce—bears no substantive relationship to mandarin orange purees; the solicitation seeks generic canned applesauce in bulk volume (4,760 cases across five truckloads), not citrus-specific products. The Oregon Department of Corrections applies a combined 10% preference (5% for Oregon-fabricated goods and 5% for Oregon-headquartered bidders), with historical pricing around $21.84 per case and an incumbent (Robbins Sales, awarded June 2026). Beyond this single mislabeled entry, the dataset contains no relevant procurement activity under UNSPSC 50384809 itself. The broader opportunity block reflects state and local food-service purchasing across multiple agencies—school districts (Austin ISD, Fairfax County, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, DISD, Douglas County), state departments (Texas HHS, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Oregon DOC, Georgia), and municipal bodies (City of Bridgeport)—but these solicitations cover commodity groceries, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared foods across standardized NIGP and USDA classifications, not specialized fruit puree products.

State and local governments procure food staples and institutional nutrition supplies through recurring annual or multi-year contracts, typically via IFB or RFP, with response dates spanning March through July 2026. Geographic concentration appears in Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Dallas ISD, Austin ISD), Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), and pockets in Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. School nutrition programs drive the bulk of visible activity, with districts bundling hundreds of line items into competitive awards based on lowest responsive bid, compliance with Buy American requirements (51% domestic content for processed goods), and firm fixed pricing across 12-month contract periods. The code itself shows no decision-relevant recent procurement signal; business development activity should focus on broader food-service distribution and commodity supply opportunities indexed to standard UNSPSC produce, canned fruit, and frozen-food categories rather than the narrow "mandarin orange purees" designation.
