UNSPSC 50385935: Passe crasanne pear purees

The variety of pears known as passe crasanne pears which have been pureed.

UNSPSC 50385935 Passe crasanne pear purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevance to state and local procurement activity based on recent solicitations. The code's nominal scope—specialized pear purées—does not match the work actually being bought under opportunities tagged with this code. Recent state and local opportunities reveal a mismatch: solicitations nominally tagged under this code actually procure broad food service categories including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, eggs, and full-line food supply for schools, corrections facilities, and health and human services agencies, not pear purées specifically. School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix—Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Douglas County School System—supplemented by state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), and independent school districts across multiple states.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Southwest: Georgia (Douglas County, Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County), Texas (Dallas ISD, Austin ISD, HHSC facilities statewide), and Missouri (Rockwood School District), with additional activity in Virginia (Fairfax County), Oregon (ODOC), Connecticut (Bridgeport), and Illinois (state-level). Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, response due July 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (historical value $1.5 million, response due July 13, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (sealed bids due April 27, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services to 32 schools (estimated annual expenditure $9,000,000, sealed proposals due February 18, 2026). The code shows significant recent activity in school nutrition procurement and institutional food service, though the taxonomy mismatch suggests this code may be applied broadly or inconsistently across issuing jurisdictions.
