UNSPSC 50375428: Canned or jarred organic limonera pears

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

UNSPSC 50375428 Canned or jarred organic limonera pears is a Commodity code representing a narrow product line, but the recent opportunities block shows no active solicitations for this specific item. Instead, state and local buyers are procuring broadly across shelf-stable and fresh produce categories—canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce bundles spanning apples, berries, citrus, and specialty items, and mixed food commodities for institutional food service. The code's nominal scope (organic limonera pears in canned or jarred form) does not align with the recent buying activity visible in the opportunities sample, which emphasizes generic canned fruit, mixed vegetable and produce bundles, and brand-or-equal commodity procurement rather than a specific varietal pear product.

Issuing bodies across the recent opportunities include state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), county school boards (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Austin Independent School District in Texas), county nutrition and social-services departments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and municipal nutrition centers (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). Geographic spread spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Connecticut, with the most concentrated recent activity in Texas (state hospitals, corrections, health agencies) and Georgia (county boards of education and county social services). Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (approximately 4,760 cases, historical price $21.84 per case, FOB destination with five-truck-load delivery schedule through July 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and living centers (210 line items, $4.5 million potential value over three years, bid closing March 19, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, July 2026 through June 2027 school year contract, three delivery locations), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for food items to Gwinnett Senior Services Center (1,062 cases of shelf-stable products, October 19, 2026 deadline). The code shows little activity directly relevant to its stated scope of organic limonera pears; pursuit should be contingent on whether the bidder supplies applesauce, generic canned fruit, mixed produce, or other commodity food products into institutional food service rather than the specific varietal product the code names.
