UNSPSC 50335437: Dried organic red bartlett pears

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

UNSPSC 50335437 Dried organic red bartlett pears is a Commodity code that nominally addresses a single produce line item, but the recent state and local solicitations show almost no activity under this specific code. School districts, county education systems, and correctional facilities soliciting dried fruit procurement have tagged opportunities to this code while actually requesting broad baskets of fresh and dried produce, mixed dried fruits and nuts, and comprehensive food supply contracts spanning hundreds of line items. The Hancock County Schools fresh produce solicitation (IFB, due June 26, 2026) encompasses over 200 fresh produce items including apples, berries, vegetables, and citrus—not dried pears. The Santa Clara County correctional facility's dried fruits and nuts procurement (ITB, due February 5, 2026) specifies raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis, with no mention of dried pears. The Douglas County School System's food supply distribution RFP (due February 18, 2026) calls for fresh and staple items across a $9 million contract serving 25,500 students. Coding alignment appears loose; the code does not reflect what is actually being procured under these notices.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia and California based on the recent opportunities: Hancock County Schools and Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Douglas County School System serving 30 school districts across two Georgia regions, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System soliciting fresh produce. Santa Clara County's correctional facility procurement in California represents the western activity. Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued multiple food commodity solicitations (cafeteria food products and prunes), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools) round out the geographic spread, but none of these recent opportunities specifically request dried organic red bartlett pears as a line item. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; state and local procurement in this commodity family is driven by school nutrition programs and correctional food services requiring bulk fresh or mixed-dried-fruit supply, not specialty dried-pear procurement.
