UNSPSC 50335422: Dried organic italian butter pears

The variety of organic pears known as organic italian butter pears that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50335422 Dried organic Italian butter pears is a Commodity code under which state and local governments solicit fresh and specialty produce for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other public institutions. Recent solicitations show that while the code nominally specifies dried organic Italian butter pears, state and local issuing bodies are actually procuring a broad mix of fresh produce — apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, and specialty items — alongside processed foods, proteins, and pantry staples for cafeteria and institutional meal service. School districts and state agencies are the primary buyers, with sealed-bid IFBs as the standard notice type. Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content in processed products are standard across recent solicitations, and vendors must provide HACCP plans, food-safety certifications, compliance documentation, and proof of insurance ranging from $500,000 to $1 million.
