The variety of pears known as passe crasanne pears that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345435 Frozen passe crasanne pears is a Commodity code that spans institutional food procurement across state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, municipalities, and special-purpose districts purchasing shelf-stable and frozen produce for nutrition programs, institutional cafeterias, and food distribution. State and local buyers under this code seek fresh, frozen, and processed food commodities meeting USDA standards, CACFP or NSLP compliance where applicable, and Buy American content thresholds. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections), county school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Gwinnett County), municipal school systems (City of Bridgeport Board of Education), and nonprofit child care networks (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Texas dominates recent solicitation volume, with multiple concurrent HHSC food service bids for state hospitals and supported living centers; Georgia, Oregon, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Mississippi also show active procurement in the past four months.

Recent opportunities under this code include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's July 2026 IFB HHS0017338V1 for frozen food products (106 line items including baked goods, prepared entrees, proteins, and vegetables) serving state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, estimated at $9 million annually with potential total value of $19 million over the contract period; the Oregon Department of Corrections' August 2026 IFB S2910000017684 for 40,000 pounds of frozen sliced or diced apples with a 10% Oregon-vendor preference; and the Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce covering 200-plus line items (multiple apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, citrus, and specialty items) with Buy American content requirements and delivery to three school sites. The City of Bridgeport and Head Start of Greater Dallas both posted grocery procurement in June 2026 spanning 1,100-plus and 32,409 estimated cases respectively, with NSLP and CACFP nutrition compliance and domestic sourcing emphasis. Early County Board of Education solicited 300-plus food items plus non-food supplies in May 2026 with firm pricing for the July 2026–June 2027 contract period and six-month price-adjustment review gates tied to USDA or CPI indices.
