UNSPSC 50355448: Frozen organic stark crimson pears

The variety of organic pears known as organic stark crimson pears that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50355448 Frozen organic stark crimson pears is a Commodity code that describes a specific produce item, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no solicitations for frozen organic pears themselves. Instead, the code appears to be tagged on broader food and produce purchasing initiatives — school nutrition programs, senior services, and public-agency food procurement — where frozen and fresh produce are part of larger commodity baskets alongside shelf-stable items, dairy, proteins, and non-food supplies. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts and county social-services departments operating National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program contracts, along with county social-services agencies purchasing for senior centers and community programs.

The issuing bodies span Georgia school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education), Georgia county government (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), the State of Georgia, and Connecticut municipal education procurement (Bridgeport Board of Education via the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases). Hancock County Schools issued an IFB for fresh produce covering over 200 line items across apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, and specialty fruits for the 2026-27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026. Gwinnett County issued an informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins for its Department of Community Services, with quotes due October 19, 2026. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids for 300+ food items plus non-food supplies spanning meats, dairy, produce, and bread products for delivery through June 30, 2027, with bids due June 8, 2026. Bridgeport Board of Education sought bids on over 1,100 grocery line items including frozen products, vegetables, fruits, and dairy with compliance to USDA Buy American and Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act standards, with electronic bids due June 30, 2026. Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut; the State of Georgia also solicited food, supplies, and kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date.
