UNSPSC 50611768: Canned or jarred Non GMO semil 43 avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO semil 43 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 50611768 Canned or jarred Non-GMO semi-avocados, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show a mismatch: the substantive solicitations cover broad-based food procurement for state institutions, schools, and corrections facilities, but none specifically name canned or jarred avocados as a line item. The code's nominal product category—semi-avocados in shelf-stable form—does not surface in the nine opportunities posted between May and October 2026. State and local buying under this code, when it occurs, typically serves institutional food service operations such as state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services.

Recent activity clustering under related food and consumable codes shows Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County (Georgia), the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the State of Illinois as active buyers of shelf-stable food products. The geographic spread is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 (food items for Community Services, due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for canned tomatoes (7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026, at $13.75 per case in the prior purchase). None of these solicitations explicitly reference canned or jarred avocado products, suggesting this Commodity code may have limited near-term procurement volume or may be underutilized by state and local procurement offices for products that fall within broader food-service line items.
