UNSPSC 50365445: Canned or jarred seckel pears

The variety of pears known as seckel pears that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50365445 Canned or jarred seckel pears (Commodity) shows sparse direct activity; the code's few recent solicitations are mislabeled, reflecting state and local procurement offices tagging produce and prepared food products under produce-specific codes rather than preserved-fruit commodity codes. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000017453 in July 2026 for canned fruit applesauce (not pears) with delivery to Salem, Oregon, and the same agency posted an earlier ITB S2910000016081 in February 2026 for canned fruit pears, but the complete specification document was not available in the source material. Beyond those two Oregon Department of Corrections notices, the recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly seeking canned or jarred seckel pears; procurement activity under this code appears limited to a single repeat buyer in a single state. State and local governments are purchasing preserved fruits—applesauce, pears, and mixed canned fruit—primarily for correctional facilities and institutional food service, but the volume of recent, substantiated opportunities under the seckel-pears commodity code itself is negligible.

Geographic concentration is entirely within Oregon based on available records. The Oregon Department of Corrections represents the only identified issuing body with multiple recent opportunities in the code's scope. Historical pricing for canned applesauce at ODOC was $21.84 per case as of June 2026, and prior canned-pear procurement was quoted at approximately $21.83 per case as of January 2026, suggesting commodity-level pricing stability but no material growth in demand. The code does not show sufficient recent activity to characterize as an active pursuit opportunity; business development effort would be better directed to broader produce and food-service commodity codes where school districts, correctional systems, and health and human services agencies demonstrate consistent, high-volume buying across multiple states.
