UNSPSC 50385907: Beurre pear purees

The variety of pears known as beurre pears which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385907 Beurre pear purees (Commodity) is a narrow product code for a specific fruit preparation used sparingly in state and local food service procurement. Recent opportunities tagged to this code show little direct procurement activity for beurre pear purees themselves; instead, jurisdictions are soliciting broader food and consumable product categories that may include fruit preparations as line items within larger baskets of shelf-stable and fresh foods for institutional dining, school nutrition, and correctional facility food service. The actual buying under codes near this specification spans canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and mixed food commodities for senior services, veterans homes, state hospitals, school districts, and correctional facilities. Issuing bodies are state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), county boards of education and commissioners (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Gwinnett County in Georgia), municipal school districts (Austin Independent School District, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), and specialized state facilities. No recent opportunity explicitly names beurre pear purees as a standalone solicitation.

The geographic spread of recent activity is concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas) and Pacific Northwest (Oregon), with activity also in Illinois and Connecticut. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide in May 2026 (HHS0016792V2, with bids due March 19, 2026, encompassing 210 line items of fresh, frozen, and packaged foods with a potential three-year contract value of $4.5 million); the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITBs for canned applesauce in May and July 2026 (S2910000016975 and S2910000017453, both due June 2 and July 31 respectively, at approximately 1,900 and 4,760 cases); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requesting informal written quotes in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, due October 19); and Hancock County Board of Education issuing an IFB for fresh produce for school year 2026-27 (PE67080NONST2027000000013, bids due June 26). The narrow scope of this commodity code and the absence of direct beurre pear puree solicitations suggest limited current pursuit opportunity under this specific code.
