UNSPSC 50384905: Wilkins tangerine purees

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

UNSPSC 50384905 Wilkins tangerine purees (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity; instead, jurisdictions are buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and branded grocery items across food service, school nutrition, and institutional feeding programs. The code's nominal scope—a specific branded tangerine purée product—diverges substantially from what state and local governments are actually soliciting and awarding under this classification.

State and local buyers across school districts, state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and institutional facilities are sourcing broad categories of food products including fresh and frozen fruits, vegetables, dairy, proteins, and prepared entrees through a mix of ITBs, RFPs, and IFBs. Recent activity spans Oregon (Department of Corrections canned applesauce), Texas (Health and Human Services Commission supplemental foods, TDCJ cafeteria products, Dallas ISD specialty items), Georgia (Douglas County School System produce and eggs, Liberty County and Muscogee County school districts fresh produce), Missouri (Rockwood School District grocery items), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education commodities), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools master grocery). School districts and state institutional facilities dominate the issuing-body mix; these entities conduct annual or multi-year term contracts with firm fixed pricing, strong emphasis on USDA compliance and Buy American provisions, and delivery to multiple school sites or central warehouses. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, historical price $21.84 per case), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (estimated prior-period value $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026), the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for master grocery K-12 (45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens, due April 27, 2026), and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs (approximately $4.4 million Area One, $1.1 million Area Two, due March 4, 2026).
