UNSPSC 50611764: Canned or jarred Non GMO rue avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO rue 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 50611764 Canned or jarred Non GMO rue avocados, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains ten contract opportunities issued between May and October 2026 — all tagged under this code — but none involves canned or jarred avocados of any kind. The opportunities encompass food service procurements for state agencies, counties, school districts, and correctional facilities, with scope spanning shelf-stable pantry items (canned tomatoes, peanut butter, rice, pasta, soups, canned vegetables, proteins), fresh and frozen produce, dairy, proteins, bread, and consumable kitchen supplies. One Oregon Department of Corrections solicitation (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) procured 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes; Ben Hill County Schools (PE61000NONST2027000000006, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (PE55037NONST2027000000007, due June 5, 2026) issued comprehensive food bids covering hundreds of line items; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for food and consumables to serve state supported living centers and state hospitals statewide. The code assignment appears to be a tagging error — none of the recent opportunities name avocados as part of their scope.

The issuing bodies are diverse and include state health and human services departments (Texas), state departments of corrections (Oregon), county boards (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County, Georgia; Burke County, Georgia), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and state agencies (Illinois, Georgia, Oregon). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with scattered activity in other states. The code shows no recent opportunities aligned with its nominal scope, and the tagging mismatch suggests the code is not an active procurement category for state and local governments at this time.
