UNSPSC 50612101: Canned or jarred Non GMO citadel brussel sprouts

The variety of Non GMO brussel sprouts known as Non GMO citadel brussel sprouts 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 50612101 Canned or jarred Non GMO citadel brussel sprouts is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable packaged vegetables for institutional food service operations, principally in residential care, corrections, and school nutrition programs. The recent solicitations tagged to this code show that issuing bodies are sourcing canned and jarred vegetables — along with broader consumable food portfolios — to supply state supported living centers, state hospitals, correctional facilities, county senior services programs, and school districts. The scope of work under the code spans both single-item procurements of specific canned vegetables and large multi-line food supply contracts that include jarred and canned produce as one component among dozens of food categories. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments (Texas HHS Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections), county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller's office).

The code sees the most recent activity in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), which solicits 22 line items including prepared foods and food service supplies with delivery within seven days of order; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins for senior services (due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026) with 5 percent Oregon-preference scoring and delivery to Salem. The Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for TDCJ cafeteria food products encompasses roughly 382 line items including canned vegetables and fruits with firm fixed pricing due May 4, 2026. Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 solicited multiple food categories across four schools for July 2026–June 2027 with monthly pricing adjustments permitted after the initial 30-day period. Delivery requirements commonly specify FOB Destination with freight prepaid, 72-hour to seven-day fulfillment windows, and compliance with FDA/USDA standards and shelf-life minimums ranging from 12 months to six months remaining at delivery.
