UNSPSC 50335445: Dried organic seckel pears

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

UNSPSC 50335445 Dried organic seckel pears is a Commodity code that captures dried fruit products procured by school districts and state correctional agencies for food service. Recent state and local solicitations show the code active within broader fresh and processed produce categories, though dried organic seckel pears as a standalone line item do not appear prominently in recent postings. Instead, procurement activity under this code tier typically falls within larger food commodity RFQs and IFBs that group dried fruits, fresh produce, and specialty food items for institutional cafeterias and kitchen operations. School districts represent the dominant issuing bodies, with state departments of criminal justice and city nutrition programs also soliciting. Buyers enforce Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products, HACCP food safety plans, E-Verify authorization, and comprehensive insurance coverage. Sealed-bid IFBs and RFQs with firm fixed pricing through multi-year contract periods (typically July through June or September through August) are the standard notice format.

The geographic spread includes Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas among the most recent active jurisdictions. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with responses due June 26, 2026, covering multiple apple varieties, berries, vegetables, and specialty fruit.
