UNSPSC 50395122: Organic late valencia orange purees

The variety of organic oranges known as organic late valencia oranges which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50395122 Organic late valencia orange purees is a Commodity code that names a narrowly defined product — organic citrus puree from a specific variety — yet state and local procurement under this code shows little alignment with that nominal scope. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting organic late valencia orange purees. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code span broad food service procurement across multiple product categories: fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, shelf-stable staples, and mixed food and consumable items for institutional kitchens. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code include county boards of education (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), city purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport), county purchasing divisions (Gwinnett County), and independent school districts (Austin ISD). The mismatch between the code's narrow product name and the broad food-service activity in recent opportunities suggests either systematic miscoding of food procurement across multiple tiers or that this particular Commodity code sees little direct use for its intended product.

Recent procurement activity under or near this code spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with issuing bodies issuing informal written quotes (IWQ), invitations for bid (ITB, IFB), and request for proposals (RFP) in a pattern typical of routine institutional food service contracting. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned fruit applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, with a historical price of $21.84 per case); Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumable products with a prior-period monetary value of $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026; and the City of Bridgeport's bid for 115 line items of institutional food commodities due June 26, 2026. No recent opportunities explicitly solicit organic late valencia orange purees as a standalone product or component of a larger food service contract.
