UNSPSC 50613252: Canned or jarred Non GMO seneca dawn corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO seneca dawn 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 50613252 Canned or jarred Non GMO seneca dawn corn is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure as a line item within broader food service solicitations for schools, correctional facilities, and human services institutions. Recent activity shows this specific branded item appears sporadically in multi-hundred-line-item food procurement RFPs and IFBs, but no recent opportunity isolates it as a standalone requirement. Instead, canned corn specifications surface as one product among dozens of canned vegetables and proteins in larger school nutrition, corrections, and state health facility food buys. The issuing bodies driving procurement activity under related commodity codes span school districts (elementary through high school food services across multiple states), state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies operating state hospitals and supported living centers, and independent school districts ranging from small rural systems to large urban districts like Fairfax County Public Schools serving 25,000+ students.

Geographic concentration leans toward the Southeast and Texas, with recent solicitations posted by Georgia school districts (Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County, Burke County, Ben Hill County), Texas health agencies (HHSC, TDCJ), Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Homes, and Missouri school districts (Rockwood R-VI). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products due July 13, 2026, covering state supported living centers statewide with an estimated $1.5 million historical value; the Ben Hill County Schools IFB due June 15, 2026, for comprehensive food products across multiple school locations requiring Buy American compliance; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T26300CF for cafeteria food products due May 4, 2026, with approximately 382 line items; and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 due April 27, 2026, for Master Grocery K-12 supply across 45 schools and distribution kitchens. Canned vegetables including corn typically appear as mid-tier spend items priced per case in firm-fixed contracts with quarterly or annual renewal options, demand-driven volumes rather than guaranteed minimums, and pricing tied to USDA commodity reports or market indices where escalation is permitted.
