UNSPSC 50325418: Dried forelle pears

The variety of pears known as forelle pears that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325418 Dried forelle pears is a Commodity code that does not reflect meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code appears in the dataset but has generated no substantive solicitations in the recent opportunities block; a single tangential reference surfaced in a Texas Department of Criminal Justice bid for whole, pitted dried prunes (a different dried-fruit category) issued in early 2026, which does not align with forelle pear procurement. State and local governments soliciting under dried-fruit and nut categories are instead pursing broader fresh-produce and multi-item grocery contracts for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and institutional food services, where dried fruit appears as one line item among dozens or hundreds of SKUs rather than as a standalone commodity.

The absence of dedicated dried forelle pear solicitations reflects the narrow demand signal for this specific product. State and local school districts, county correctional systems, and food service operations in the sample (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Connecticut, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and Santa Clara County) are consolidating produce procurement into master grocery, fresh-produce, and dried-fruit-and-nuts contracts spanning 50+ to 900+ line items with multiple vendors per solicitation. The County of Santa Clara's February 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts at Elmwood Correctional Facility included dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix, with walnuts and pecans, but no forelle pears. The code warrants a skip unless your pipeline includes direct outreach to institutional food-service operations preparing bid responses to multi-category grocery or produce solicitations where a dried-pear line item might surface on an amendment or in a future renewal cycle.
