UNSPSC 50565308: Non GMO bosc pear purees

The variety of non GMO pears known as non GMO bosc pears which have been pureed

UNSPSC 50565308 Non GMO Bosc pear purees is a Commodity code that state and local government procurement offices tag to food service and nutrition supply contracts, though recent solicitations in the source show no activity specifically for Non-GMO Bosc pear purees. Instead, the code appears in a broader ecosystem of food commodity procurement where school districts, county governments, state agencies, and corrections departments source shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional meal service, senior nutrition, and campus food operations. The issuing bodies active under related food-commodity codes include county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education, Austin Independent School District, City of Bridgeport Board of Education), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Georgia), and county social-services departments (Gwinnett County Department of Community Services). These entities procure food items through a mix of informal written quotes (IWQ), invitations for bid (IFB), and requests for proposal (RFP), typically requiring firm fixed pricing, compliance with USDA or FDA commodity standards, delivery on FOB Destination terms, and insurance documentation.

Recent solicitations across the broader food-commodity family show activity concentrated in the Southeast and Southwest, with standout recurring activity from Texas (HHSC, TDCJ, AISD), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Hancock County, State of Georgia), Oregon (ODOC), Illinois (State Chief Procurement Office), and Connecticut (City of Bridgeport). Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' purchase of approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026), the State of Illinois weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy (brand-specific and brand-or-equal RFPs, due August 24, 2026), Oregon Department of Corrections' procurement of 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District's RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (HHS0016792v2, response deadline March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years). The code itself—Non-GMO Bosc pear purees—has generated no recent state or local solicitation in the source material, signaling either minimal procurement demand for this specific specialty item or miscoding of opportunities in the taxonomy.
