UNSPSC 50612204: Canned or jarred Non GMO kyoto market bunching onions

The variety of Non GMO bunching onions known as Non GMO kyoto market bunching onions 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 50612204 Canned or jarred Non GMO Kyoto market bunching onions (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement solicitations; the code shows no relevant recent activity.

The recent opportunities tagged under this code—consumables and food service supply procurements by Texas Health and Human Services Commission (Lufkin and El Paso state supported living centers), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia), the State of Illinois, Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the State of Georgia—all solicit broad commodity-category food products including canned vegetables, prepared foods, fresh produce, proteins, and food service supplies. None of the nine posted opportunities between May 2026 and October 2026 explicitly names bunching onions (fresh, frozen, or preserved) as a line item or solicits specialty or non-GMO vegetable varieties. The Texas HHS procurements (due August 25 and October 23, 2026) mention peppers and general vegetables; the Gwinnett County quote (due October 19, 2026) lists canned vegetables among 35 line items; the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB (due June 19, 2026) targets 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes; and the school district and TDCJ food service bids solicit vegetables as part of much broader product categories spanning hundreds of line items. None of these solicitations indicate volume, pricing, or vendor interest specific to bunching onions, canned or jarred, Non-GMO, or Kyoto-market varieties. A business development professional should verify whether the code assignment is correct or whether this commodity falls under a different UNSPSC classification more actively solicited in state and local food-service procurement.
