UNSPSC 50385914: D'anjou pear purees

The variety of pears known as d'anjou pears which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385914 D'anjou pear purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued an ITB on July 10, 2026, for canned fruit applesauce (due July 31, 2026), and Austin Independent School District posted an RFP on June 26, 2026, for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026)—neither directly matching pear purees. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and multiple Georgia school districts (Hancock County, Douglas County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, Muscogee County) all issued food procurement notices in the same period, but their scope spans broad commodity categories (applesauce, fresh produce, grocery items, fresh fruits and vegetables) rather than pear puree specifically. State and local issuing bodies under related fruit and produce codes include corrections departments, school nutrition programs, health and human services agencies, and school districts across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and Missouri. The code itself appears to capture a narrow specialty item that state and local agencies seldom procure in isolation; when fresh or processed fruit products are solicited, they typically appear as line items within larger food-service or commodity bids rather than standalone opportunities.

Recent opportunities in the broader fruit and produce family reflect school districts and state agencies buying standardized commodity volumes on annual or multi-year fixed-price contracts. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) posted an IFB on June 10, 2026, for over 200 line items of fresh produce (due June 26), while Douglas County Schools (Georgia) issued an RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One (proposals due March 4, 2026). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured supplemental food and consumables statewide—including canned and frozen products—with contracts valued up to $4.5 million over three years. The geographic concentration of recent activity spans the Southeast (Georgia, Florida), Texas, the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), and the Upper Midwest (Illinois, Missouri), with school nutrition programs and state-operated facilities (corrections, mental health services, developmental disability centers) as the primary buyers. D'anjou pear purees as a standalone commodity do not appear in the recent opportunities block, suggesting limited or episodic demand under this specific code. Bidders targeting fruit and vegetable codes should monitor school district RFPs and state food-service consolidated solicitations rather than expect category-specific notices.
