UNSPSC 50555202: Canned or jarred non GMO blue passion flower

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO blue passion flower 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 50555202 Canned or jarred non-GMO blue passion flower (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local solicitation activity; the code's narrow product specification does not align with the food-procurement work actually being bought under related commodity codes across the state and local market today. Recent opportunities capture large-volume purchases of shelf-stable canned and jarred food items for institutional food service—including canned proteins, vegetables, fruits, applesauce, and specialty items—but none of the recent solicitations explicitly name canned or jarred blue passion flower as a line item or procurement focus. The issuing bodies pursuing food-commodity purchases span county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia), state departments and institutions (State of Illinois Veterans Homes, Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), school districts (Austin Independent School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), and municipal nutrition programs (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), indicating broad public-sector use of institutional food suppliers across institutional types.

Recent representative opportunities include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections' invitation to bid for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce delivered in five truckloads to Salem (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's invitation for bid covering 210 line items of fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated food products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (IFB HHS0016792v2, with prior due date March 19, 2026, and estimated three-year value of $4.5 million). Activity is concentrated in Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut. The code's narrow scope and absence from posted solicitations suggest minimal current demand for canned or jarred blue passion flower specifically within state and local procurement.
