UNSPSC 50613232: Canned or jarred Non GMO jubilee corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO jubilee corn that has 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 50613232 Canned or jarred Non GMO jubilee corn is a Commodity code capturing canned and preserved corn products that state and local governments procure as components of institutional food service operations, particularly school nutrition programs and state facility catering. The code sees active solicitation across school districts, state health and human services agencies, and correctional facilities, with issuing bodies ranging from small rural districts to large metropolitan school systems and specialized state institutions. Recent opportunities show food service procurement dominated by school nutrition programs—representing the largest share of activity—alongside Texas Health and Human Services Commission purchases for state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections purchases for institutional feeding, and Illinois Veterans Home procurement. These buyers source canned vegetables including corn as line items within comprehensive food supply contracts, typically bundled with proteins, dairy, produce, and prepared entrees rather than as standalone commodity purchases.

Activity concentrates in the Southeast (Georgia school districts, Texas state health facilities), Pacific Northwest (Oregon Department of Corrections), and Midwest (Illinois state facilities, Missouri school districts), with secondary activity across Virginia and other states. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products supplying the El Paso State Supported Living Center at approximately $1.5 million annually; the Ben Hill County Schools IFB posted May 19, 2026 (due June 15, 2026) for comprehensive school food procurement across four schools emphasizing whole grain and low-sodium items; the Rockwood R-VI School District solicitations (posted March 31, 2026, due April 29, 2026) for over 900 grocery line items serving approximately 6,900 lunch participants; and the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (posted April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026) for a Master Grocery K-12 term contract supplying 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens with weekly deliveries. Most school-district procurements require firm pricing for 12 months with limited midterm adjustments (typically only when manufacturer increases exceed 5 percent), Buy American compliance, HACCP plan implementation, and general liability insurance of $1 million to $2 million. Payment terms run Net 30 to 90 days post-delivery, and contracts typically allow single or multiple vendor awards on a line-item basis to optimize price competitiveness across product categories.
