UNSPSC 50583309: Non GMO danimas cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO danimas 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 50583309 Non GMO danimas cucumbers is a Commodity code that covers fresh produce procurement for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and state operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code are acquiring fresh vegetables—including cucumbers, alongside broader produce categories such as apples, bananas, peppers, carrots, leafy greens, and tomatoes—for child nutrition, school breakfast and lunch programs, and the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts of varying sizes, from independent districts serving 6,900 to 83,000+ students, along with state departments of education and county boards of education. School districts drive the majority of recent activity, with procurement offices managing annual food service contracts that span dozens of produce line items and serve hundreds of schools across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida and Missouri. The State of Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce (May 2026, due May 27, 2026) and a general food supplies solicitation (May 2026, due June 22, 2026). In Georgia school districts, the Bulloch County School District sought locally grown produce within 200 miles through an RFP due May 4, 2026; Liberty County Board of Education issued an IFB for produce due April 29, 2026; Muscogee County School District solicited produce via ITB due April 27, 2026; Glynn County Board of Education issued IFB 27-02 due April 14, 2026; and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System solicited fresh produce via bid due April 23, 2026. In Texas, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) issued RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce due May 7, 2026, and McAllen Independent School District solicited fresh produce through RFP 2026-1029 due March 6, 2026.

Most contracts run July 1 through June 30 annually, with firm pricing required for the contract term and limited cost adjustments permitted only with USDA or Bureau of Labor Statistics documentation. Vendors commonly must maintain HACCP certification, comply with Buy American provisions, carry general liability insurance, and demonstrate experience with institutional food service delivery.
