UNSPSC 50564209: Non GMO fremont mandarin orange purees

The variety of non GMO mandarin oranges and tangerines known as non GMO fremont mandarin oranges which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564209 Non GMO Fremont mandarin orange purees (Commodity) describes pureed fruit products for institutional food service, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with the nominal scope. Instead, jurisdictions are soliciting canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, eggs, and broad food-supply contracts for schools, correctional facilities, and health and human services agencies—none of which are mandarin orange purees. The work actually being bought under this code tag spans multiple issuing-body types: state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office), school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, multiple Georgia school systems), and special-purpose districts (Savannah-Chatham County Public School System). The geographic spread includes Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia, with school nutrition procurement concentrated in the South and Mid-Atlantic regions. The code shows active recent opportunity volume, but the mismatch between its nominal product (mandarin orange purees) and the actual solicitations (canned fruit, fresh produce, mixed food-service items, grocery staples) suggests either systematic miscoding by issuing bodies or that the code is being used as a catch-all for fruit and produce categories beyond its strict definition.

Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (posted July 10, 2026, due July 31, 2026) for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at $21.84 per case, historically awarded to Robbins Sales; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical annual value of $1.5 million and a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million; and Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 (posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026) for over 200 line items of fresh produce across multiple varieties with delivery to three school sites. Austin ISD issued RFP 27RFP004 (posted June 26, 2026, due July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps. Pricing structures in these solicitations typically require firm, fixed unit rates including all transportation and delivery charges on an FOB destination basis, with payment terms ranging from Net 30 to Net 45 days. Most school district procurements include Buy American requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products) and compliance with USDA commodity and nutritional standards. The code shows substantial near-term activity but limited relevance to mandarin orange purees specifically; vendors should investigate whether their actual product category matches the UNSPSC code assigned by each issuing body before pursuing.
