UNSPSC 50392602: Organic fingered citron purees

The variety of organic citrons known as organic fingered citrons which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50392602 Organic fingered citron purees (Commodity) describes specialty prepared-fruit products that state and local governments purchase in small volumes as part of broader food-service procurement for institutional settings such as correctional facilities, schools, senior services, and state-supported living centers. However, the recent solicitations tagged with this code show minimal relevance to organic fingered citron purees specifically—the representative opportunities instead cover general canned and fresh fruit procurement (canned applesauce, fresh produce for school nutrition, dried fruit bars), shelf-stable food staples (proteins, grains, dairy for prison and school cafeterias), and comprehensive food-service supply contracts spanning dozens of commodity categories. The code's narrow focus on a specialty citrus product does not align with the scope of work actually being solicited under its tag in state and local procurement, and the database shows no recent opportunities explicitly requesting organic fingered citron purees.

The issuing bodies driving recent food-service activity include state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois Veterans Home), county school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Austin ISD, Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County), and municipal procurement offices (City of Bridgeport). Geographic spread spans the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), Southwest and South Central (Texas), Midwest (Illinois), Southeast (Georgia), and Northeast (Connecticut). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (posted July 2026, due July 31, 2026) with a historical price of $21.84 per case; the Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum three-year potential value of $4.5 million (IFB HHS0016792v2, responses due March 19, 2026); and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year (due June 26, 2026). Most institutions require Buy American compliance, prevailing wage certifications where applicable, and fixed pricing for the contract term, with awards typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or on best-value criteria.
