UNSPSC 50555709: Canned or jarred non GMO flavor grenade plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO flavor grenade 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 50555709 Canned or jarred non-GMO flavor grenade plucot, a Commodity code, does not map to the state and local procurement activity currently posted under it. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for plucots or any variant thereof; instead, issuers have tagged broad food-service procurements—including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed food and consumable supplies—under this code, likely due to data-entry or taxonomy-mapping error in the source systems. The actual work being bought under the code spans shelf-stable food products for correctional facilities, veterans' homes, school districts, county nutrition programs, and state-supported living centers, with deliveries to central distribution points or facility-based warehouse locations. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, state procurement offices, county boards of education and commissioners, city school districts, and independent school districts across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast and Texas. The Oregon Department of Corrections has posted two ITB solicitations for canned applesauce (ITB S2910000016975, June 2, 2026, and ITB S2910000017453, July 31, 2026), each for approximately 1,900–4,760 cases at historical pricing near $21.80 per case with Oregon preferences totaling 10 percent. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0016792v2 for supplemental food and consumables with a three-year potential value of $4.5 million across state hospitals and supported living centers (due March 19, 2026), and IFB HHS0017449 for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with prior-period spend of $1.5 million (due July 13, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's office, posted IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products across five warehouse regions with extended response dates (due May 4, 2026, after addendum). Georgia posted a statewide RFQ for food and kitchen supplies (due June 22, 2026), Gwinnett County requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable items (due October 19, 2026), and Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple RFPs for weekly food orders to the Veterans Home at Quincy (August 24 and June 17, 2026 due dates). Connecticut's City of Bridgeport and Austin Independent School District also posted commodity food procurements in this timeframe. The code shows no material activity outside these states and none matching the plucot description.
