UNSPSC 50384812: Honey mandarin orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50384812 Honey mandarin orange purees (Commodity) does not align with state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code's nominal scope—a single fruit puree product—bears little relevance to what state and local governments are actually buying under related food codes. Recent solicitations tagged to this or adjacent produce codes reflect broad food service procurement for schools, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and other institutional buyers, but none of the twelve opportunities posted between February and July 2026 mention honey mandarin orange purees or any mandarin product at all. The activity instead spans canned and fresh fruits (applesauce, pears, mixed fresh produce), dried fruit bars, general grocery items, fresh vegetables, eggs, and comprehensive food-service commodity supply—a portfolio far wider than a single puree variety.

State and local issuing bodies active in food procurement include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, Hancock County, Liberty County, and Dallas ISD), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia Department of Education), county boards of education, and municipal food service operations (City of Bridgeport). Geographic spread is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Oregon, and Virginia, with no discernible recent procurement activity specific to honey mandarin orange purees. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items, $4.5 million potential value, due March 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB for Master Grocery K-12 (two-section contract with weekly deliveries to 45 schools plus warehouses, due April 27, 2026). The mismatch between code definition and procurement reality suggests this code sees minimal or no relevant state and local activity at present.
