UNSPSC 50375404: Canned or jarred organic bartlett pears

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

UNSPSC 50375404 Canned or jarred organic Bartlett pears is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable fruit products for institutional food service, though recent opportunities under this code show broader fruit purchasing activity spanning canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and assembled food service inventories rather than organic Bartlett pears specifically. The code sees active use among school districts, state correctional and health facilities, and municipal nutrition programs sourcing bulk food inventory. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, county and independent school districts, and municipal boards of education—with school nutrition programs appearing as the most frequent users across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent opportunities span multiple states and regions. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted ITB S-29100-00017453 in July 2026 requesting 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (response due July 31, 2026), applying a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon goods and Oregon-based bidders and awarding previously to Robbins Sales at $21.84 per case. Austin Independent School District issued RFP 27RFP004 (response due July 16, 2026) for dried fruit bars and apple crisps; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited weekly food orders for state facilities under brand-specific requirements (response due June 17, 2026); and the Douglas County School System in Georgia posted RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in a cooperative buying arrangement, with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for one geographic area (response due March 4, 2026). Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri have all recently solicited grocery and produce contracts in the first half of 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Virginia) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with school nutrition programs driving the majority of recent volume.
