UNSPSC 50603419: Frozen Non GMO persian cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO persian 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 50603419 Frozen Non GMO Persian Cucumbers is a Commodity code that state and local governments use to classify fresh produce procurement, particularly frozen specialty vegetables for institutional food service. However, the recent solicitation activity under this code does not reflect significant standalone demand for frozen persian cucumbers specifically. The three most recent opportunities posted under or near this code span broader food procurement categories — shelf-stable pantry items for senior services, statewide food and kitchen supplies, and school lunch program provisions — rather than targeting frozen produce as a distinct line item. When frozen vegetables do appear in these solicitations, they are typically listed alongside dozens of other food products as part of general institutional food service contracts rather than as standalone commodity purchases.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food items under this code include county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state departments (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education). Recent activity concentrates in Georgia. Gwinnett County sought informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services with a response date of October 19, 2026 (IWQ 140229), while the State of Georgia posted a May 15, 2026 bid for food, supplies, and kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 deadline, and Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items and non-food supplies for school meal programs with a June 8, 2026 response date. The school district contract emphasizes domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with award made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. No recent opportunities explicitly isolate frozen persian cucumbers as a standalone procurement line.
