UNSPSC 50554308: Canned or jarred non GMO mogi loquats

The variety of non GMO loquats known as non GMO mogi loquats that have 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 50554308 Canned or jarred non-GMO mogi loquats, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement solicitations. The code's nominal scope—specialty preserved loquats—bears no match to the food service purchasing activity actually occurring under related commodity codes. Recent opportunities in the broader canned and jarred fruit category (represented in the source block) instead solicit generic canned applesauce, fresh produce, and shelf-stable food staples for school nutrition programs, state corrections facilities, state veterans' homes, senior services centers, and state-operated living centers. These solicitations name apples, berries, vegetables, proteins, dairy, and standard pantry items—not specialty or non-GMO fruit preserves. The issuing bodies are diverse: state corrections and health departments (Oregon, Texas, Illinois), county boards of education and commissioners (Georgia, Connecticut), city procurement offices (Bridgeport), and independent school districts (Austin). No recent opportunity explicitly names UNSPSC 50554308 or references mogi loquats or equivalent specialty preserved fruit.

Activity in the canned and fresh fruit space is geographically broad, with recent solicitations posted from Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, and Connecticut between May and October 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned applesauce procurements (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026, and ITB S-29100-00016975, due June 2, 2026, each for approximately 1,900–4,760 cases at historical pricing near $21.83 per case), the Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce RFP for the 2026–27 school year (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items), and the Texas HHSC's statewide supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years). The code shows little relevant recent state and local activity; procurement under this Commodity appears negligible or absent in the current market.
