UNSPSC 50604306: Frozen Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi

The variety of Non GMO kohlrabi known as Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi that has 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 50604306 Frozen Non GMO white vienna kohlrabi, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product category within state and local food procurement — yet recent opportunities show that state and local governments actually solicit this code as part of much broader food-supply contracts that bundle shelf-stable proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, and fresh or frozen produce into single line-item bids. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in October 2026 requested informal written quotes (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of food items including canned vegetables for senior services; the State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid in May 2026; and Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids for 300+ food items supporting school lunch and breakfast programs, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole grains, and low-sodium formulations. Issuing bodies range from county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County), state-level procurement (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education), with school districts and county social services showing particular activity in this code family. The work being solicited involves meeting USDA nutrition standards, managing cold-chain logistics (delivery temperature and stock rotation), satisfying Buy American provisions, maintaining HACCP plans, and delivering within tight windows—often 72 hours or same-day—to multiple school or senior-services sites.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, with Gwinnett County (suburban Atlanta), the State of Georgia, and Early County all posting opportunities between May and October 2026. The Gwinnett County IWQ (PE77023NONST2027000000782) required quotes by October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville; the State of Georgia IFB (PE55645NONST2026000000009) closed June 22, 2026; and Early County's line-by-line food bid (PE55045NONST2027000000006) closed June 8, 2026 with contract performance from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Award criteria emphasize lowest unit price (per ounce or equivalent measure), responsive and responsible bidding, vendor references, and compliance with worker verification and E-Verify requirements for contracts exceeding $2,499.99. Early County permits price adjustments on a six-month basis tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data, with increases over 3% allowing provisional sourcing elsewhere.
