UNSPSC 50385952: Sunsprite pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50385952 Sunsprite pear purees is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name references a branded pear product, yet the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for sunsprite pear purees or branded pear products of any kind. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, potatoes, eggs), and broad food and consumable procurement for correctional facilities, state supported living centers, school districts, and other institutional food service operations. The mismatch between the code's specific commodity designation and the actual work being procured suggests either a tagging error in the state and local source data or that sunsprite pear purees have seen no recent solicitation activity, making this code a poor match for vendors specializing in that product line.

Activity is concentrated among school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Hancock County, and Douglas County systems), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas HHSC, Illinois CPO), and city boards of education (Bridgeport, Connecticut). Geographic spread includes Georgia (multiple school districts), Texas (school districts, HHSC), Oregon (corrections), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Missouri (Rockwood), and Illinois statewide. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026, at $21.84 per case (ITB S-29100-00017453); Dallas ISD RFP for various food products including spice and ice cream lots for the 2026-27 school year, due April 2, 2026; and the Douglas County School System RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs spanning 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, due March 4, 2026. School nutrition procurement dominates the opportunities, with most RFPs and IFBs structured as annual fixed-price contracts with firm pricing for the contract term, Buy American compliance requirements, and delivery to multiple school locations or central warehouses.
