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

UNSPSC 50564233 Non GMO ponkan bantangas mandarin orange purees is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable and fresh food products purchased by state and local governments for institutional food service, including school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, aging services, veterans homes, and state-supported living centers. State and local procurement under this code in practice spans a much broader range of shelf-stable and fresh food items than the nominal code name suggests — recent solicitations show school districts, county boards of education, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and municipal boards of education purchasing canned fruits and applesauces, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, dairy products, proteins, grains, condiments, and consumables for cafeteria and institutional meal programs. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state departments (corrections, health and human services), with county boards of education and municipal nutrition centers also active. Purchases are typically structured as annual or multi-year contracts with firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery to centralized distribution or warehouse locations, and awards based on lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value criteria; Buy American provisions and state procurement preferences appear frequently in school nutrition and state agency solicitations.

The code sees recent activity across the South and West, with Georgia, Illinois, Texas, Oregon, and Connecticut posting solicitations in the May–October 2026 window.
