UNSPSC 50564912: Non GMO cara cara orange purees

The variety of non GMO oranges known as non GMO cara cara oranges which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50564912 Non GMO cara cara orange purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevance to recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope describes a specific citrus product, yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for cara cara oranges, orange purees, or comparable specialty citrus items. Instead, the tagged opportunities span broad food service categories: canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, weekly grocery orders, fresh produce, cafeteria food products, and consumable supplies for schools, corrections facilities, health and human services agencies, and state-supported living centers. The mismatch between the code name and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding at source or that cara cara orange purees represent a negligible procurement line item within larger, multi-category food service contracts.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products include school districts (Fairfax County, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County, and Dallas ISD), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas TDCJ), county boards of education (Hancock County, Georgia), and city boards (Bridgeport Board of Education). Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Connecticut, with secondary activity in Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (bids due July 31, 2026), Austin ISD's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (due April 27, 2026). Buy American requirements, firm fixed pricing, FOB destination delivery, and product compliance with USDA and FDA standards appear consistently across these opportunities. Given the code's specificity and the absence of matching recent solicitations, this category presents limited pursuit opportunity in the current market.
