UNSPSC 50345433: Frozen packham's triumph pears

The variety of pears known as packham's triumph pears that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345433 Frozen Packham's Triumph Pears is a Commodity code that sees limited direct procurement activity in state and local government; the recent opportunities in the source show grocery and food-service solicitations tagged with this code but seeking broad produce assortments rather than specialty pear varieties. The code sits within the broader fresh and frozen produce purchasing activity that state and local agencies conduct for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state hospitals, state supported living centers, and child care programs. When pears do appear in recent solicitations, they are listed as one line item among dozens of produce SKUs in comprehensive food service bids, not as a standalone procurement.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting produce include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (for state hospitals and supported living centers), Georgia school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Savannah-Chatham County, Bulloch County, Douglas County, City Schools of Decatur, Fulton County, Henry County), Connecticut and Missouri school districts, Head Start agencies, and county correctional facilities. Recent representative opportunities span a wide geographic footprint: Texas HHS issued IFB HHS0017660 for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (due July 27, 2026) and HHS0017449 for food and consumables at El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), both covering fresh and frozen produce among many other food categories under NIGP classes spanning proteins, dairy, and produce. Georgia school districts dominate the recent activity—Hancock County Board of Education issued IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce covering over 200 line items with apples, berries, and specialty fruits (due June 26, 2026), while Douglas County School System issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across two geographic areas serving 30 districts with an estimated $4.4 million to $1.1 million spend (due March 4, 2026). None of these solicitations isolates Packham's Triumph pears as a distinct commodity; the code likely reflects a data-tagging inconsistency rather than active market demand for the specific variety in state and local procurement.
