UNSPSC 50611756: Canned or jarred Non GMO nadir avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO nadir 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 50611756 Canned or jarred Non-GMO nadir avocados (Commodity) does not reflect the food service procurement activity currently being solicited under this code across state and local jurisdictions. The recent opportunities block contains no bids or RFQs for canned or jarred avocados of any kind; instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span institutional food service for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county social services—with scope that includes proteins, frozen entrees, canned vegetables, dairy, grains, condiments, and miscellaneous staples, but no avocado products. The mismatch suggests either that this code was applied to opportunities at the broader commodity family or segment level without matching the specific commodity name, or that state and local procurement offices have tagged general food service contracts to a narrowly defined commodity code.

No meaningful recent opportunities exist under this code's stated scope. The source identifies eight state and local food service solicitations active between May and October 2026 across Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, State of Georgia), Illinois, and Oregon; none of these procurements request canned or jarred avocados—GMO-free or otherwise. Issuing bodies include state health and human services agencies, state correctional systems, county commissions, school districts, and state supply divisions, but their actual purchases under the code's nominal scope do not appear. A business development professional evaluating this code should confirm with state and local procurement offices whether the commodity classification is current or whether food service activity has migrated to parent-level codes or alternative taxonomy.
