UNSPSC 50552302: Canned or jarred non GMO seedless breadfruit

The variety of non GMO breadfruit known as non GMO seedless breadfruit that has been canned or jarred for preservation. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50552302 Canned or jarred non-GMO seedless breadfruit, a Commodity code, sees minimal state and local procurement activity grounded in this code specifically; the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for breadfruit products. Instead, state and local issuing bodies are soliciting canned and jarred fruit products across a broader range — applesauce, pears, and mixed fruits — as well as dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and comprehensive food service supply contracts. The code's nominal scope (non-GMO seedless breadfruit in preserved form) does not match the work actually being bought in the recent contract opportunities shown, which center on conventional canned fruit staples and fresh produce for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health and human services operations.

School districts dominate recent activity, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Austin Independent School District (Texas), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all soliciting food supply contracts under various UNSPSC codes. Correctional and state health facilities also appear frequently — the Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned applesauce in May and July 2026, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice solicited supplemental food, consumables, and cafeteria food products statewide. Geographic spread spans the South and Upper Midwest, with Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia showing the highest recent posting density. Representative opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, historical award to Robbins Sales at $21.84 per case), Austin Independent School District RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (due July 16, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). The absence of any posted breadfruit-specific opportunity signals that this Commodity code does not reflect current state and local procurement demand.
