UNSPSC 50555877: Canned or jarred non GMO white bullace plum

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO white bullace plum 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 50555877 Canned or jarred non GMO white bullace plum, a Commodity code, describes specialty preserved fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service—institutional cafeterias, corrections facilities, senior services, and school nutrition programs. The code's narrow product definition does not closely align with the broader shelf-stable and fresh produce buying patterns visible in the recent opportunities block; those solicitations span canned applesauce, fresh produce, dried fruit bars, and mixed food commodities rather than the specific bullace plum variety. State and local issuing bodies pursuing canned fruit procurements range across county boards of education, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, school districts, and county government nutrition centers. Georgia counties (Gwinnett County, Hancock County) and large state systems (Texas HHSC, Oregon ODOC, Illinois state veterans homes, Connecticut and Bridgeport school boards) appear active in recent shelf-stable and fresh produce procurement.

Recent opportunities show strong geographic spread across Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Connecticut, with activity centered on food-service supply for corrections, schools, and senior-care facilities. Representative solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IFB for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (response due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S-29100-00017453 for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (response due July 31, 2026, with a historical award price of $21.84 per case to Robbins Sales), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026, with historical annual spend of $1.5 million). Buy American provisions and domestic content requirements appear in most school district and state agency solicitations; Oregon and some Texas procurements offer vendor preferences for state-based fabrication or headquarters. No recent opportunity explicitly names canned non-GMO white bullace plum as a procured item.
