UNSPSC 50375451: Canned or jarred organic sun gold pears

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

UNSPSC 50375451 Canned or jarred organic sun gold pears (Commodity) represents shelf-stable canned and jarred produce that state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service—school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. Recent solicitations show this code being deployed alongside broader food commodity procurement, where organic and specialty canned fruits appear as line items within larger produce or food supply contracts rather than as standalone competitive procurements. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice, State of Georgia), and special-purpose facilities (Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy, HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). Food procurement is distributed across multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies rather than concentrated among repeat buyers, though state correctional and human-services agencies appear multiple times in the recent record.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with the most recent solicitations posted in October 2026 (Gwinnett County) and August 2026 (Illinois). Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (a related canned fruit product) due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales; and Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period and a due date of July 13, 2026. Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content (typically 51 percent for processed products) and compliance with USDA commodity specifications appear consistently across school district and state-agency procurements. Pricing is evaluated on a per-unit or per-case basis with firm fixed rates; delivery is FOB Destination with prepaid transportation, and contract terms typically run one to three years with optional renewals.
