UNSPSC 50554938: Canned or jarred non GMO red roy nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO red roy nectarines 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 50554938 Canned or jarred non-GMO red roy nectarines, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity that aligns with the code's nominal scope. The source identifies thirteen recent opportunities from state and local jurisdictions, but only two bear any meaningful relationship to the code itself: the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026) and a prior ODOC ITB for canned pears (S2910000016081, due March 6, 2026). The remaining eleven opportunities target fresh produce, dried fruit products, grocery staples, proteins, dairy, and pantry items for school districts, state agencies, and other jurisdictions—none of which match the specific commodity of canned or jarred red roy nectarines. The two canned-fruit opportunities from ODOC establish that state procurement does occur in the canned-fruit category, but they specify applesauce and pears, not nectarines. The code shows no evidence of recent solicitation for the commodity it nominally describes.

ODOC is the only repeat buyer evidenced in canned fruit, with two separate ITB cycles visible in the source (applesauce contracts posted May 18 and July 10, 2026). Oregon is the sole state with recent activity specifically aligned to the code's tier. School districts dominate the broader state and local food procurement landscape shown in the source, with IFBs and RFPs from districts in Texas (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD), Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI) pursuing fresh produce, grocery, and food service contracts, but none targeting canned nectarines. A business development professional evaluating this code should recognize that while state and local governments do purchase canned fruit, recent activity focuses on other varieties and does not support active demand for canned or jarred non-GMO red roy nectarines specifically.
