UNSPSC 50385526: Moro orange purees

The variety of oranges known as moro oranges which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385526 Moro orange purees (Commodity) covers shelf-stable and refrigerated fruit products purchased by state and local nutrition programs, institutional food service, and school districts. Recent state and local opportunities show the code capturing a broader set of processed fruit items than the code name alone suggests — applesauce (canned and fresh equivalents), dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and mixed produce procurements that include citrus and other fruit categories. These are typically FOB destination, firm-fixed-price buys with delivery to central distribution centers or school nutrition facilities, compliance with USDA commodity or grade standards, and contract terms running 12 months with optional renewal periods.

Issuing bodies span state correctional and health agencies, state-supported living centers, county school boards, city school districts, and county social services departments. The Oregon Department of Corrections and the State of Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy appear as repeat buyers, each posting multiple rolling procurements for quarterly food supply. Recent opportunities show activity across Georgia (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners purchasing for senior services, Hancock County Schools), Illinois (State Chief Procurement Office for Veterans Home), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Texas (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, TDCJ cafeteria products, Austin ISD), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and other jurisdictions. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a historical price of $21.84 per case and delivery to Salem (response due July 31, 2026); Gwinnett County's IFQ for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including sauces and canned vegetables for senior services (response due October 19, 2026); and Austin ISD's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (response due July 16, 2026). Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers carried an estimated three-year value of up to $4.5 million (response deadline March 19, 2026, now closed).
