UNSPSC 50564942: Non GMO tunis orange purees

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

UNSPSC 50564942 Non GMO tunis orange purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect recent state and local procurement activity. The nine recent opportunities tagged to this code solicit shelf-stable food products, fresh produce, canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and cafeteria staples for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, veterans' homes, and state-supported living centers—but none explicitly name orange purees or citrus purees as line items. The scope mismatch suggests either broader tagging of food-commodity solicitations or downstream vendor-system classification that does not map cleanly to this specific commodity code. State and local food procurement under this code tier spans county education boards, state departments of corrections and health services, school districts, and county senior services offices, with purchasing driven by nutrition and food-service programs rather than specialty citrus products.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two canned-applesauce ITBs (May 18 and July 10, 2026, due June 2 and July 31 respectively), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested shelf-stable food items under IWQ 140229 (due October 19, 2026), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office solicited weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy on a brand-specific and brand-or-equal basis (due August 24, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requested supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and living centers statewide (due March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years). Austin Independent School District issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education sought fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026). If your firm supplies processed fruit products, preserved citrus, or specialty produce items, confirm the exact scope with issuing bodies before pursuing; the code as tagged does not reliably predict procurement intent.
