UNSPSC 50395537: Organic red bartlett pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50395537 Organic red bartlett pear purees, a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity posted under this classification. The 16 opportunities in the recent block span canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, weekly food orders, fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus, root vegetables), eggs, refrigerated and frozen entrees, dairy products, bread, condiments, and bulk grocery staples—none of which are organic red bartlett pear purees. The mismatch suggests the code may be over-tagged in issuing agencies' procurement systems or reflects a classification drift as jurisdictions source wider commodity baskets under broader food-product codes.

Issuing bodies posting opportunities tagged to this code include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Dallas ISD, Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, Hancock County), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Chief Procurement Office, State of Georgia), counties (Muscogee County), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport). School nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, with IFBs and RFPs for food service supply contracts running July 2026 through June 2027 school years and ITBs for institutional food procurement (prisons, state-supported living centers, state hospitals). Geographic spread covers Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Connecticut, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce due July 31, 2026; Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services with an estimated annual value of $9 million, due February 18, 2026. Activity under this code reflects institutional and school nutrition demand rather than specialty fruit puree procurement.
