UNSPSC 50611734: Canned or jarred Non GMO hall avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO hall avocados that have been canned or jarred 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 50611734 Canned or jarred non-GMO hall avocados, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement primarily as a line item within much larger consumables and food-service solicitations rather than as a standalone procurement category. The recent opportunities show that state and local governments source canned and jarred foods — including canned tomatoes, canned vegetables, canned proteins, and shelf-stable produce — as part of comprehensive food-service contracts for institutional facilities including state supported living centers, correctional institutions, school nutrition programs, and county social-service operations. The solicitations consistently specify USDA grade standards, shelf-life requirements (typically 12 months minimum), proper labeling and Country of Origin compliance, and delivery on FOB Destination terms within 7 to 30 days of order. The issuing bodies are mixed: Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple state supported living center and state hospital contracts), Oregon Department of Corrections, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Illinois, and State of Georgia. The geographic spread is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on recent postings, with secondary activity in Illinois.

Representative recent opportunities include Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), which bundles prepared foods and food-service supplies across 22 line items with estimated annual usage of 1 to 24 cases per item and requires delivery within seven days of order; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services (due October 19, 2026), spanning 35 line items including canned vegetables, proteins, and sauces with delivery required by December 7, 2026; and Oregon Department of Corrections S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), with an Oregon-fabricated or resident-bidder 5% preference and a prior-year reference price of $13.75 per case. Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 and Burke County Public Schools PE55037NONST2027000000007 represent school-district food procurements encompassing hundreds of line items across multiple categories with Buy American Act compliance requirements. The code shows no standalone recent opportunities; canned or jarred non-GMO avocados appear only within larger institutional food-service bundles, suggesting limited direct procurement activity at the commodity level.
