UNSPSC 50365431: Canned or jarred olivier de serres pears

The variety of pears known as olivier de serres pears that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365431 Canned or jarred olivier de serres pears is a Commodity code. State and local governments do not actively procure under this code; the recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for olivier de serres pears specifically. The opportunities posted under this code instead cover a broad range of shelf-stable food products—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and general food and consumable inventory—that bear no direct relationship to the narrow commodity name. Issuing bodies pursuing food procurement span county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), county social-service departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), state departments of corrections (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home system), and independent school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education). The code sees active use across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut, with scattered additional activity in other states.

Recent representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' issuance of an ITB for approximately 1,904 cases of canned fruit applesauce (S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026) and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumable products to state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years). The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote request for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products spanning 35 line items for the Department of Community Services (PE77023NONST2027000000782, due October 19, 2026). These solicitations consistently apply Buy American provisions, require firm fixed pricing, mandate delivery to specified distribution centers or school nutrition facilities, and award based on lowest responsive and responsible bid or best value. The code's mismatch with actual procurement activity—nominally olivier de serres pears but actually general canned and packaged food categories—signals a taxonomy misalignment rather than active demand for the specific commodity named.
