UNSPSC 50565317: Non GMO emperor brown pear purees

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

UNSPSC 50565317 Non GMO emperor brown pear purees (Commodity) covers shelf-stable and fresh fruit products that state and local governments purchase for food service operations across schools, correctional facilities, health and human services institutions, and senior services programs. The code's scope is broader than the specific product name suggests — recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce, and mixed commodity food items alongside or in place of pear purees. School districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, and county senior services departments are the primary issuing bodies, with repeat activity from the State of Illinois (quarterly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy), the Oregon Department of Corrections (canned fruit procurement), and Texas state agencies (HHSC, TDCJ, Comptroller's office). Most solicitations follow IFB or RFP methods with firm fixed pricing required and delivery on FOB destination terms; Buy American provisions frequently apply to school and institutional food service contracts, typically requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed products.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, Connecticut, and Arizona, with the heaviest concentration in the South and Southwest. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requesting informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including proteins and canned vegetables due October 19, 2026 (IWQ 140229); the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office seeking weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy with proposals due August 24, 2026 under both brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications; the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with a July 31, 2026 closing and a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales; Austin Independent School District requesting proposals for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission soliciting food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a July 13, 2026 deadline and a prior contract value of $1.5 million; and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) requesting bids on over 200 line items of fresh produce for school year 2026-27 due June 26, 2026. The code shows consistent quarterly and annual procurement cycles driven by institutional food service budgets and school calendar requirements.
