UNSPSC 50384826: Natsudaidai mandarin orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50384826 Natsudaidai mandarin orange purees is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under it. The opportunities in the block span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, supplemental food and consumables for state facilities, fresh produce, eggs, and broad-scope food service contracts for schools and correctional systems—none of which are natsudaidai mandarin orange purees or mandarin orange products of any kind. The code shows no recent state or local solicitations for the specific product named in the UNSPSC title.

The issuing bodies in the dataset include state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), independent school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, Hancock County), and county school systems, with activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Missouri. The actual work being solicited spans food service supply contracts ranging from $1.5 million to $9 million in estimated annual value, with delivery to school nutrition centers, correctional facilities, state supported living centers, and hospital food service operations. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026), the Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (estimated $1.5 million, proposals due July 13, 2026), and the Douglas County School System RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services to 32 schools serving approximately 25,500 students (estimated $9 million annually, proposals due February 18, 2026). The mismatch between the code title and the actual procurement activity suggests either a systematic tagging error or that the UNSPSC code is being applied to a broad commodity-foods family rather than to the specific mandarin orange product line the code nominally represents.
