UNSPSC 50583301: Non GMO arena cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO arena cucumbers. 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 50583301 Non GMO arena cucumbers is a Commodity code covering fresh produce, specifically cucumbers and related fresh vegetables, that state and local governments procure for food service operations across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and county services. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers treating this code as part of broader produce and food-service procurement — purchasing fresh fruits and vegetables as line items within larger food-supply contracts rather than as standalone specialty items. The issuing bodies span county parks departments, school districts, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices; Early County Board of Education and Collier County Board of County Commissioners are recent active buyers. The scope of work includes fresh produce meeting quality, food-safety, and delivery standards, with attention to seasonality, freshness guarantees, and compliance with USDA standards where applicable to school nutrition programs.

The code shows recent activity across Georgia and Florida. Representative opportunities include Early County Board of Education's June 8, 2026 line-by-line food bid (IFB) for school lunch and breakfast programs across three schools, which encompasses vegetables and fruits among 300+ food items with domestic-sourcing and low-sodium preferences; Marion Health Care Coalition's August 21, 2026 produce proposal due date for the 2026–2027 contract period; Collier County Board of County Commissioners' March 6, 2025 Invitation to Negotiate for North Collier Regional Park food services, which includes fresh produce as part of concession operations; and the State of Georgia's June 22, 2026 food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid. Produce procurement under this code typically bundles with broader food-service contracts rather than standing alone, and school districts and county services drive the most visible recent demand.
