UNSPSC 50613255: Canned or jarred Non GMO seneca white knight corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO seneca white knight 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 50613255 Canned or jarred Non GMO Seneca White Knight corn is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable canned and jarred corn products sourced to institutional food service operations, particularly state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, schools, and health department programs. State and local governments buying under this code procure specific branded items (often with "or approved equivalent" allowances) as line items within broader consumable food solicitations that also include proteins, vegetables, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments, departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, independent school districts, and specialized state institutions. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent solicitations. The code reflects the granular, specification-driven nature of institutional food procurement, where individual SKUs are priced and awarded competitively within consolidated multi-line food and consumables contracts.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a question deadline of June 22, 2026, and response due July 13, 2026, under a $1.5 million prior-period spend; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned vegetables, with quotes due October 19, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. and delivery required by December 7, 2026; and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomatoes IFB (S2910000017145) for 7,616 cases due June 19, 2026, which shows typical pricing benchmarks (prior purchase at $13.75 per case) and USDA Grade B or better specifications. School district food bids in Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools) solicit dozens of line items across produce, proteins, and canned goods for fiscal year 2027 operations, typically with questions due in early June and sealed bids due mid-to-late June. Texas TDCJ IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution points closed May 4, 2026, after a March 26 pre-bid conference. All recent solicitations require firm unit pricing on F.O.B. Destination terms, three verifiable references, and compliance with Buy American, HACCP, debarment, and E-Verify certifications.
