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

UNSPSC 50565349 Non GMO summer Bartlett pear purees is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable and fresh fruit products procured for institutional food service operations. State and local governments buy processed and fresh fruit items under this code primarily to supply school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, veterans homes, senior services, and state-supported living centers. The issuing bodies are a mix of state agencies (departments of corrections, veterans affairs, health and human services), county boards of education and commissioners, independent school districts, and municipal departments. Recent solicitations show demand for canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, fresh produce including apples and berries, and commodity-grade canned fruits that meet USDA specifications. Purchasing offices typically specify brand-or-equal or brand-specific procurement options, with delivery to central distribution centers or individual facility locations and firm fixed pricing for contract periods ranging from quarterly to annual terms.

Activity under this code is concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut, with recent opportunities issued by the Oregon Department of Corrections (multiple ITBs for canned applesauce in May and July 2026), the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office (quarterly brand-specific and brand-or-equal weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy in June and August 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including preserved fruits, due October 19, 2026), Austin Independent School District (RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (IFB for food and consumable products for state supported living centers, due July 13, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia (IFB for over 200 line items of fresh produce including apples and berries, due June 26, 2026), the City of Bridgeport Connecticut Department of Public Purchases (commodities bid for the Board of Education Nutrition Center due June 26, 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (IFB for cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse regions, extended due date May 4, 2026). Most opportunities use IFB, RFQ, or RFP methods with response windows of one to three weeks; several require compliance with Buy American provisions mandating domestic content, and several impose Oregon or state-resident bidder preferences.
