UNSPSC 50611740: Canned or jarred Non GMO k-9 avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO k-9 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 50611740 Canned or jarred Non GMO k-9 avocados is a Commodity code that in practice does not match the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities dataset shows no active solicitations for canned or jarred non-GMO avocados. Instead, the code appears to be tagged on a diverse set of food supply procurements covering institutional meals, school cafeterias, and food service operations—none of which request avocados as a line item. The code shows little relevant recent activity and the tagging appears to reflect a data-entry mismatch rather than genuine procurement demand for the product specified in the code name.

The issuing bodies pursuing food supply contracts include state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and state criminal justice departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with food procurement solicitations posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for consumable foods and kitchen items at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), which covers prepared foods and food service supplies; Gwinnett County's informal written quote for shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and vegetables (due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). These procurements emphasize USDA compliance, Buy American Act requirements where applicable, firm fixed pricing, delivery within seven to 30 days, and F.O.B. Destination terms.
