UNSPSC 50384818: Lee mandarin orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50384818 Lee mandarin orange purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity directly aligned to its stated scope. The code's nominal title does not match the work actually being solicited in the recent opportunities block—the posts tagged to this code cover canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, and broad food-service procurement rather than mandarin orange purees specifically. State and local governments soliciting food products for institutional food service—school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and state supported living centers—are tagging their fruit, produce, and general food-commodity buys across a wide range of UNSPSC codes, and this particular code shows no distinct or repeated activity that reflects the narrowly defined commodity line it nominally represents.

The issuing bodies in the recent-opportunities block span school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Hancock County, Douglas County), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and county boards of education across Georgia. Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce due July 31, 2026 (4,760 cases at approximately $21.84 per case historical pricing, FOB destination with 5 percent Oregon-goods preference and 5 percent Oregon-headquarters preference); Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center due July 13, 2026 (prior-period historical value of $1.5 million). The code as assigned does not meaningfully predict demand for mandarin orange purees—the recent activity suggests this code may be misapplied or reflects a broader fruit-product categorization at the commodity level that diverges from its specific title.
