UNSPSC 50375423: Canned or jarred organic jargonelle pears

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

UNSPSC 50375423 Canned or jarred organic jargonelle pears is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable fruit products purchased by state and local food-service operations, though recent activity under this code is sparse and activity appears to cluster in broader food-item procurements rather than this specific product line. State and local buyers soliciting under related Commodity codes and Classes are issuing informal written quotes, invitations for bid, and requests for proposals for mixed food inventories — canned vegetables, fruits, applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce — destined for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, state-supported living centers, and veterans' homes. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, city nutrition centers, and county social-services departments. These jurisdictions typically procure on firm fixed-price, FOB-destination terms with delivery windows spanning 45 to 72 hours and contract periods running one fiscal or calendar year with optional renewals.

Recent posted opportunities show activity concentrated in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two invitations to bid for canned applesauce (May 2026 and July 2026, with responses due June 2 and July 31 respectively), each requesting approximately 1,900–4,760 cases at historical pricing near $21.83 per case.
