UNSPSC 50385536: Roble orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50385536 Roble orange purees (Commodity) does not map cleanly to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—orange puree products—appears only tangentially in the source opportunities; instead, the block shows robust, recurring demand for a much broader family of food products covering canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, eggs, and consumable food service supplies across K–12 school nutrition, corrections, institutional health services, and state facility operations. The actual work being bought under UNSPSC codes in this family spans contract food service supply and delivery to schools, prisons, hospitals, state supported living centers, and other public institutions on annual or multi-year terms, with pricing firm-fixed or tied to cost-of-living indices and delivery typically FOB destination with all transportation prepaid.

State procurement departments, independent school districts, county boards of education, and state health and human services agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, and Douglas County School System appearing as repeat buyers in the recent block. Geographic activity spans Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia, with particular concentration in Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, DISD, Dallas-area districts) and Georgia (multiple county school systems and state facilities). Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (210 line items across state hospitals and supported living centers, historical value $4.5 million over three years), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB for Master Grocery K–12 (45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens, July 1, 2026 start), and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through a multi-district cooperative (approximately $5.5 million combined annual spend across two geographic areas). All solicitations emphasize Buy American compliance, USDA commodity standards, firm pricing for contract duration, and delivery performance tied to weekly or on-demand schedules.
