UNSPSC 50325454: Dried taylors red pears

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

UNSPSC 50325454 Dried taylors red pears, a Commodity code, encompasses dried fruit products procured by state and local education and correctional agencies. Recent solicitations show school nutrition programs and state departments buying dried fruit and fresh produce as components of larger food-service contracts, though opportunities specifically isolated to dried red pears are sparse in the current market. State and local school districts and education departments dominate the issuing-body mix, with secondary activity from state departments of corrections and criminal justice. School boards issue the majority of visible opportunities, typically bundling dried fruit within broader fresh produce or commodities contracts for cafeteria supply.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce covering the 2026-27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response date, encompassing over 200 line items across multiple categories; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases issued RFQ BNB053266 for commodities to the Board of Education Nutrition Center, also due June 26, 2026, covering 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products to multiple warehouse locations, with the response deadline extended to May 4, 2026, covering approximately 382 line items including fresh and canned vegetables and fruits; the same agency issued Bid No. IW236532 for whole pitted dried prunes in February 2026. All school nutrition solicitations enforce the Buy American provision requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content in processed products, firm fixed pricing for the contract term, and HACCP plans or equivalent compliance documentation.
