UNSPSC 50355443: Frozen organic ruby red pears

The variety of organic pears known as organic ruby red pears that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355443 Frozen organic ruby red pears, a Commodity code, tracks procurement of specialty frozen fruit products by state and local agencies, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code does not show frozen organic pears as a line item. Instead, the most recent state and local opportunities posted under food procurement codes show demand for broad fresh and frozen produce assortments, shelf-stable grocery items, and school nutrition program supplies across breakfast, lunch, and senior services operations. School districts and county government offices dominate the issuing bodies, with boards of education in Georgia (Hancock County, Early County) and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education) and senior services departments (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services) posting RFQ and IFB notices for food procurement. The work encompasses line-by-line competitive bidding for nutritionally compliant, domestically sourced products delivered to central warehouses and school sites, with Buy American provisions (51% domestic agricultural content) and National School Lunch Program compliance required. Vendors must meet strict delivery windows, temperature controls, labeling, and recall accessibility standards.

The recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education (Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27, IFB, due June 26, 2026) solicited over 200 line items of fresh produce including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, and specialty fruits for school year 2026-27 delivery. Early County Board of Education (FY27 Food Bid, due June 8, 2026) requested approximately 300+ food items plus 60 non-food and paper supplies, emphasizing whole-grain, low-sodium, and domestic products. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (IWQ 140229 Purchase of Food Items, RFQ, due October 19, 2026) sought 35 line items of shelf-stable products for senior services. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Grocery Items, electronic bid, due June 30, 2026) posted over 1,100 line items across breakfast, frozen, condiment, vegetable, fruit, dairy, and meat categories for the school food program. The State of Georgia also posted a general food supplies solicitation (due June 22, 2026) with detailed scope in an attached document. None of these recent notices explicitly itemize frozen organic ruby red pears as a solicited line item.
