UNSPSC 50395505: Organic best ever pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50395505 Organic best ever pear purees (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity under this code. The source lists sixteen recent opportunities across Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Illinois, but none solicit organic pear purees. Instead, the recorded activity spans broad fruit and vegetable supply: canned applesauce (Oregon Department of Corrections, ITB, July 31, 2026), dried fruit bars and apple crisps (Austin Independent School District, RFP, July 16, 2026), fresh produce including apples and berries (multiple school districts and county nutrition programs across Georgia and Missouri), eggs, and commodity food products for state institutions. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and school nutrition programs (Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and cities (Bridgeport, Connecticut). Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction: Buy American requirements appear in most school procurements; Oregon offers 5 percent preferences for in-state goods and in-state bidders; Texas applies pricing formulas tied to federal minimum wage and consumer price indices; and some districts encourage minority and women-owned business participation.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (HHSC statewide supplemental food for state hospitals and living centers; TDCJ cafeteria food across five geographic regions; Dallas ISD; Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ), Georgia (multiple school systems across diverse counties), and the Pacific Northwest (Oregon Department of Corrections). Secondary activity appears in Missouri (Rockwood R-VI and Fairfax County Public Schools), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and Illinois (state-level quarterly food orders). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumable procurement (IFB HHS0016792, initially due February 23, 2026, later extended; 210 line items statewide; estimated maximum value $4.5 million over three years), the Douglas County School System's Food Supply and Distribution RFP (estimated $9 million annually across 32 schools for 25,500 students), and multiple school nutrition fresh-produce contracts with annual values ranging from approximately $1.1 million to $4.4 million per geographic area. The code shows little relevant recent activity; procurement officers are classifying fruit and vegetable supply using this code despite the mismatch between the code's nominal scope (organic pear purees) and the actual work being bought (broad commodity and fresh-produce distribution for institutional food service).
