UNSPSC 50375448: Canned or jarred organic stark crimson pears

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

UNSPSC 50375448 Canned or jarred organic stark crimson pears is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities associated with this code encompass broad institutional food service procurement — including canned fruits and applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, eggs, poultry, cheese, proteins, dairy products, grains, condiments, beverages, and consumable kitchen supplies — rather than the specific narrow product line the code name describes. State and local issuing bodies include county boards of education and nutrition centers, county purchasing offices for senior services, state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, independent school districts, city education and purchasing departments, and state veterans' facilities. Repeat buyers include the State of Illinois (multiple quarterly food procurements for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Oregon Department of Corrections (at least two separate applesauce solicitations), and Texas state agencies (HHSC serving state hospitals and supported living centers; TDCJ for correctional facilities).

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Connecticut, and Arizona. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office's brand-specific weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (multiple quarters, proposals due August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case; Austin Independent School District's RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and proposals due July 13, 2026. Buy American provisions apply in multiple jurisdictions; Oregon offers combined state-goods and resident-bidder preferences totaling up to 10 percent. The code shows no recent activity narrowly aligned with canned organic pears specifically; procurement professionals should verify code assignment when pursuing opportunities under this taxonomy.
