UNSPSC 50385913: Crimson red pear purees

The variety of pears known as crimson red pears which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385913 Crimson red pear purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual purchasing activity in the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it. The posted opportunities span canned and fresh fruit products—applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and supplemental food and consumables for institutional food service—none of which are crimson red pear purees specifically. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated commodity line.

State and local food service procurement under this code area is driven primarily by school districts, state corrections and health agencies, and municipal school nutrition programs across multiple states. Recent opportunities show school districts (Fairfax County, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Dallas ISD, Douglas County), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Georgia Department of Education), and county boards of education issuing ITB and RFP notices for commodity and fresh produce supply. Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas (multiple HHSC, TDCJ, and Dallas ISD solicitations), Georgia (Douglas County, Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham opportunities), and secondary presence in Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026), Dallas Independent School District RFP for various food products including spice and ice cream lots (due April 2, 2026), and Douglas County School System RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services serving 32,000 daily meals across 32 schools with estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 (proposals due February 18, 2026). The code's nominal commodity classification does not align with current procurement patterns, and no solicitations specifically for crimson red pear purees appear in the recent opportunities block.
