UNSPSC 50395532: Organic onward pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50395532 Organic onward pear purees (Commodity) does not map to the work state and local governments are actually buying under the code identifier in recent solicitations. The nine opportunities posted between May and October 2026 cover a broad range of shelf-stable and fresh food products — canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, processed and refrigerated proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable kitchen supplies — for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, senior services, and state-supported living centers. None of the recent solicitations explicitly solicit pear purees, organic or otherwise, suggesting either miscoding by the issuing bodies or minimal current procurement activity in this commodity line.

The issuing bodies span state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts/TDCJ, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and municipal nutrition departments (City of Bridgeport). Most activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County's informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026; Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide with a potential three-year value of $4.5 million and a response date of March 19, 2026. Award criteria typically favor lowest responsive and responsible bidders, though some solicitations evaluate best value. Most school and institutional food service contracts run one fiscal or calendar year with optional renewals, delivery concentrated at central distribution centers or nutrition facilities, and compliance required with USDA commodity standards, FDA regulations, and Buy American provisions where applicable.
