UNSPSC 50395502: Organic anjou pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50395502 Organic anjou pear purees (Commodity) captures fruit and vegetable purees and processed fruit products that state and local governments procure for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and commodity supply chains. Recent solicitations under this code show substantial activity in fresh and processed fruit procurement — particularly canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, and fresh produce for school districts and state agencies — though the code's nominal scope (organic anjou pear purees specifically) does not align closely with the broader fruit procurement reflected in current opportunities. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state health and corrections departments, with notable repeat activity from state nutrition programs, regional education cooperatives, and institutional food service operations. School districts dominate the mix, including Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Dallas Independent School District (Texas), and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia); state agencies including the Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and Illinois Chief Procurement Office also solicit regularly under or near this code for institutional food supply.

Geographic activity spans multiple states with concentration in the South and Southwest. Recent opportunities posted from Oregon (ODOC ITBs for canned applesauce, February–July 2026), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ food and consumable procurements, statewide reach), Georgia (multiple school districts including Douglas County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, and Hancock County), Missouri (Rockwood School District), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), Illinois (state quarterly food orders), and Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education).
