UNSPSC 50385531: Osceola orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50385531 Osceola orange purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect the recent state and local procurement activity recorded under it. The code's nominal scope names a specific citrus product, but the recent solicitations tagged to this code encompass a broad range of food service commodities—shelf-stable staples, canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and mixed cafeteria proteins—with no orange purees appearing in any posted opportunity. State and local procurement offices are issuing food service bids across counties, school districts, state departments, and special-purpose living centers, but the misalignment between the code's named product and the actual goods being solicited suggests either a cataloging error in the state or local purchasing systems or an intentionally broad code assignment that has drifted from its original intent. The mix of issuing bodies includes county boards of education, county commissioners, state corrections and health departments, and city nutrition programs.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two separate canned applesauce ITBs (S2910000016975 in May 2026 with a June 2 response date, and S2910000017453 in July 2026 with a July 31 response date, both for approximately 1,900 to 4,760 cases at a historical price around $21.82 per case). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a comprehensive supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2) covering 210 line items across state hospitals and supported living centers with a March 19, 2026 response deadline and estimated three-year value of $4.5 million. Gwinnett County, Georgia posted an informal written quote for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (PE77023NONST2027000000782) with a response deadline of October 19, 2026, while the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy in both brand-specific and brand-or-equal formats (June and August 2026 response dates). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's office, solicited approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five warehouse regions (IFB 304T26300CF, extended to May 4, 2026). Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year (IFB #SN002-2027, June 26 response deadline), and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut sought commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, and produce for its nutrition center (BNB053266, June 26 response deadline). The code shows recent activity but does not align with its stated commodity name.
