UNSPSC 50593423: Dried Non GMO yamato cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO yamato cucumbers that have been dried 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 50593423 Dried Non GMO yamato cucumbers is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The single recent opportunity posted shows that the code does not align closely with actual purchasing activity: the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases solicited grocery items spanning over 1,100 line items for the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services Department under IFB BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026), but that solicitation covers breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, seasonings, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snack items, beverages, and meat products—a broad commodity mix that does not center on dried yamato cucumbers. The procurement community shows no meaningful specialization in this narrow ingredient category at the state and local level.

State and local food service procurement under related codes focuses on school nutrition programs and senior meal services across multiple jurisdictions including Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia. Recent school nutrition RFPs and IFBs from Fairfax County Public Schools (Master Grocery K-12, IFB 2000004323), Bulloch County Board of Education (IFB #043025), Meriden Public Schools (RFP 026-41 at approximately $3.1 million), and Douglas County School System (RFP 26-003 at approximately $9 million annually) emphasize fresh produce, prepared foods, and bulk supplies meeting Buy American requirements, HACCP compliance, and nutritional standards. Senior meal services such as Hillsborough County's congregate and home delivery program (ITB-26-00289 at $17.8 million over three years) and state-level commodities procurement through Georgia and Texas agencies round out the buyer base. The code UNSPSC 50593423 does not appear in any of these active solicitations and remains largely dormant in state and local practice.
