UNSPSC 50325452: Dried sunsprite pears

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

UNSPSC 50325452 Dried sunsprite pears, a Commodity code, describes processed dried fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily through school nutrition programs and correctional facility food services. Recent solicitations show no direct procurement of dried sunsprite pears specifically; instead, the code activity reflects broader dried-fruit and fresh-produce categories that school districts and state agencies source under related commodity classifications. The narrow specificity of "sunsprite pears" as a named variety does not align with the actual procurement patterns in the recent-opportunities block, which documents general fresh produce, fresh-dried fruit blends, and commodity food service contracts spanning dozens of produce line items and protein sources rather than a single dried-pear variant.

State and local buyers soliciting under related dried-fruit and produce codes include school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood School District in Missouri, Liberty County Schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Schools in Georgia, and Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state correctional facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department of Correction), and state food-supply agencies (Georgia and Texas procurement divisions). Recent solicitations span IFBs and RFPs with response dates from February through June 2026, covering fresh produce, dried fruits and nuts, and comprehensive grocery contracts with annual values estimated between $1.1 million and $9 million for large districts. The geographic concentration of recent activity is heavily in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Because the code's nominal commodity—dried sunsprite pears as a distinct product—does not appear in any of the recent state and local opportunities, pursue this code only if your firm has established relationships with school nutrition programs or state corrections food service departments already buying specialty or branded dried-fruit products under broader procurement vehicles; otherwise the targeting value is low.
