UNSPSC 50611744: Canned or jarred Non GMO lisa p avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO lisa p 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 50611744 Canned or jarred non-GMO avocados is a Commodity code, but the code shows little relevant recent activity among state and local issuers. The nine recent opportunities tagged under this code actually source canned and jarred shelf-stable food products broadly — canned tomatoes, canned proteins, canned vegetables, and other consumable foods — rather than avocados specifically, suggesting the code assignment reflects a data-classification mismatch rather than active procurement demand for the commodity named. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code are state health and human services departments, state correctional agencies, county school districts, county governments, and county social services departments. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears twice (IFB HHS0018082 for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center in October 2026, and supplemental food procurement HHS0016792v2 covering state hospitals and living centers statewide in May 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections solicited canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases, IFB S2910000017145, June 2026); and Gwinnett County, Georgia requested shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (IWQ 140229, October 2026).

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with secondary activity in Illinois. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin facility, 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies, bids due October 23, 2026); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 (35 line items of shelf-stable foods for senior services, quotes due October 19, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 (7,616 cases of canned tomatoes at approximately $13.75 per case in the prior purchase from California Healthy Harvest, bids due June 19, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services supplemental food procurement HHS0016792v2 (210 line items of fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated food products for state hospitals and supported living centers, bids due March 19, 2026, with maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years). Food service delivery typically requires F.O.B. Destination with freight prepaid, seven-day to 30-day delivery windows, and compliance with federal food and USDA standards; bidders commonly must provide references, certifications, and liability insurance documentation.
