UNSPSC 50555704: Canned or jarred non GMO dapple dandy plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO dapple dandy plucot 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 50555704 Canned or jarred non-GMO dapple dandy plucot, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its stated scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect demand for plucots or plucot products; instead, they span a broad range of food service procurement including canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit, grocery staples, and food distribution for schools, correctional facilities, state health institutions, and school nutrition programs. State and local issuing bodies pursuing food service contracts—including departments of corrections, school districts, health and human services commissions, and boards of education—are soliciting these items through ITBs, IFBs, and RFPs, but the actual commodity codes assigned do not track the specific products being bought. The geographic spread covers Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, and Missouri, with substantial activity in school districts across multiple states.

The mismatch between code name and actual procurement signals that this Commodity code either receives inaccurate tagging in state and local procurement systems or sees so little plucot-specific demand that recent opportunities have been miscoded. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB for canned applesauce (S2910000017453, due July 31, 2026), the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs via the GEC Buying Cooperative (PE64810NONST2026000000046, due March 4, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumables statewide (HHS0016792, estimated value $4.5 million over three years). School nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, with multiple districts in Georgia, Missouri, and Texas bidding fresh produce, grocery items, and food distribution annually. If your firm specializes in plucot supply, this code shows no actionable recent demand; monitor for future activity or verify whether your plucot products are being sourced under broader commodity or produce classification codes instead.
