UNSPSC 50611825: Canned or jarred Non GMO green romano beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO green romano beans 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 50611825 Canned or jarred Non GMO green romano beans is a Commodity code that describes shelf-stable legume products state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service — correctional facilities, state supported living centers, school nutrition programs, and senior services operations. Recent solicitations show states and localities buying canned vegetables (including green beans and similar items) as line items within larger food supply contracts, not as standalone single-commodity procurements; the code's nominal scope reflects a narrow product category that appears as one of many items in broader consumable food requisitions. The issuing-body mix spans state health and human services commissions procuring for supported living centers and hospitals, county boards of commissioners purchasing for senior services, school districts buying for student nutrition programs, and state correctional departments sourcing for inmate food service. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears repeatedly across multiple fiscal-year cycles, suggesting sustained demand from state-operated residential facilities.

Recent activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026, for consumable foods for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), encompassing 22 line items including food service supplies and prepared foods with annual quantities of 1 to 24 cases per item; a similar earlier cycle, HHS0017872 (posted August 11, 2026), covered consumables and noncontract items for the same facility. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products under IWQ 140229 (posted October 13, 2026; due October 19, 2026), with items including canned proteins, soups, and canned vegetables delivered to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing Division solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (posted June 5, 2026; due June 19, 2026) for delivery to its Central Distribution Center in Salem, with Oregon-fabricated goods and resident bidders receiving 5 percent evaluation preference. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia (posted May 19, 2026; due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools in Waynesboro, Georgia (posted May 11, 2026; due June 5, 2026) issued school nutrition food bids encompassing hundreds of line items across multiple categories including canned fruits and vegetables. The code shows active but fragmented demand — no single jurisdiction dominates, and canned green romano beans appear embedded within larger line-item competitive solicitations rather than as a standalone procurement driver.
