UNSPSC 50564932: Non GMO parson brown orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50564932 Non GMO parson brown orange purees is a Commodity code covering the purchase of processed citrus juice concentrates and purees, typically for bulk food service and institutional meal programs. State and local governments soliciting under this code procure shelf-stable fruit products—applesauce, dried fruit preparations, citrus-based items, and related commodities—for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, veterans homes, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies span state departments (corrections, health and human services), county boards of education, municipal school districts, and county senior services; Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Oregon, and Connecticut appear as active buyers in recent postings. Scope of work centers on canned, jarred, or freeze-dried fruit products meeting USDA commodity specifications, with delivery typically FOB destination to central distribution points and compliance required with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed goods), food safety standards, and shelf-life requirements. Vendors quote firm unit pricing per case or ounce, with awards typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, though some jurisdictions permit multiple awards or conduct best-value evaluations.

Recent activity shows a mix of standing food service contracts and seasonal school nutrition procurement. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (June 2, 2026, and July 31, 2026 closings) totaling approximately 6,664 cases across five truck loads, with historical pricing near $21.83 per case; both solicitations applied a combined 10 percent Oregon-goods-and-resident-bidder preference and closed on the OregonBuys system. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission Procurement and Contracting Services division solicited supplemental food and consumables (March 19, 2026 closing, with maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years) and cafeteria food products for state-supported living centers (July 13, 2026 closing, $1.5 million historical annual volume). Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia purchased fresh produce for school year 2026–27 under an IFB closing June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut sought commodity supplies for its board of education nutrition center (June 26, 2026 closing) under a contract running through June 30, 2027, with MBE/CBE certification required. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia issued an informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (October 19, 2026 closing) with delivery to senior services. The Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy generated multiple recurring weekly food order solicitations (August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026 closings) under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal structures, indicating recurring seasonal contracting cycles.
