UNSPSC 50395132: Organic parson brown orange purees

The variety of organic oranges known as organic parson brown oranges which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50395132 Organic parson brown orange purees is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The code nominally describes specialized citrus products, yet the most recent opportunities solicited under this code involve canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive food service supply — none of which are organic parson brown orange purees. The Oregon Department of Corrections, Austin Independent School District, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and multiple school districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Florida are the issuing bodies appearing in recent postings, representing a mix of state corrections, school nutrition programs, health and human services facilities, and municipal procurement.

Activity under this code is concentrated in the Southeast and South Central regions, with particular intensity in Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, Dallas ISD), Georgia (multiple school districts including Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County), and Oregon (Department of Corrections). Oregon Department of Corrections issued two nearly identical ITBs for canned fruit applesauce — Solicitation S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026, requesting 4,760 cases at approximately $21.84 per case (historical pricing), and an earlier ITB S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, for 1,904 cases — both under UNSPSC 50395132 but plainly misaligned with the code's nominal scope. Texas HHSC issued IFB HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026, for food and consumables (estimated prior-period value $1.5 million) and IFB HHS0016792 due February 23, 2026 (extended from February 16), for supplemental food and consumables across state facilities with a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million. School districts soliciting fresh produce contracts under this code include Hancock County (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items of fresh and specialty produce), Fairfax County Public Schools (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, for Master Grocery K-12 supply across 45 schools), and Rockwood R-VI School District (two grocery solicitations due April 29, 2026, with over 900 and 200 line items respectively). The code shows misclassification at the commodity level, with the taxonomy apparently not updated to reflect the full scope of general food service procurement being flagged under it by state and local issuing bodies.
