UNSPSC 50335423: Dried organic jargonelle pears

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

UNSPSC 50335423 Dried organic jargonelle pears is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh and dried produce items sourced for institutional foodservice, though recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show minimal activity specifically for dried pears and instead reflect broad fresh produce and food commodity procurement for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and public agency kitchens. State and local governments buying under this code seek produce meeting USDA grade standards, domestic-content requirements under Buy American provisions, and compliance with health and safety certifications including HACCP plans and state inspection records. Issuing bodies include county school boards, city boards of education, state departments, and correctional agencies; school districts and state nutrition centers represent the most visible recent buyers, with procurement driven by annual contract cycles for meal-service supply.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) IFB for fresh produce covering over 200 line items with a June 26, 2026 response deadline and a July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 contract term; the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) IFB for commodities spanning 115 line items with a June 26, 2026 electronic submission deadline and contract through June 30, 2027; the State of Georgia food supplies and kitchen products IFB with a June 22, 2026 due date; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB with approximately 382 line items and a May 4, 2026 extended response deadline. A separate TDCJ solicitation for whole pitted dried prunes (IW236532) closed February 20, 2026, indicating some dried produce activity, though specific recent dried pear opportunities do not appear in the posted records.
