UNSPSC 50603404: Frozen Non GMO bianco lungo di parigi cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO bianco lungo di parigi cucumbers that have been frozen 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 50603404 Frozen Non GMO bianco lungo di parigi cucumbers, a Commodity code, nominally designates a specific frozen vegetable product, but recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect purchases of that specific item. Instead, solicitations are routing food procurement more broadly—shelf-stable and fresh food products, meal-service supplies, and kitchen provisions for social services, school nutrition programs, and institutional feeding operations. The issuing bodies are county boards, state purchasing offices, and school districts. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners has posted informal written quotes (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services, with quotes due October 19, 2026. The State of Georgia has solicited bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date. Early County Board of Education has requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items (meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, condiments) and 60+ non-food and paper supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with bids due June 8, 2026.

Activity under the code appears concentrated in Georgia, where county purchasing divisions, state procurement offices, and school districts are actively soliciting food service supplies. The Early County Schools bid emphasizes domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and contract term of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with extension options. Gwinnett County requires delivery to the Senior Services Center within 72 hours of order receipt when possible and by December 7, 2026, with F.O.B. Destination and inside delivery included. The code shows recent activity but the mismatch between its nominal scope (a single frozen vegetable variety) and the actual procurement (broad institutional food service provisioning) suggests the tagging does not reflect the underlying commodity classification structure.
