UNSPSC 50613419: Canned or jarred Non GMO persian cucumbers

The variety of Non GMO cucumbers known as Non GMO persian cucumbers 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 50613419 Canned or jarred Non GMO persian cucumbers is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement. The single identifiable solicitation in the source—Illinois Veterans Home's weekly food order for the July-September quarter (posted June 18, 2026)—does not specifically name canned persian cucumbers in its scope, referring instead to generic weekly food fulfillment with brand-specific items or approved equivalents. State and local governments procure food products under this code as part of broader institutional food supply contracts for schools, correctional facilities, health and human services centers, and veteran facilities, but the source material shows no recent opportunities specifically targeting preserved persian cucumbers as a line item or product category.

The recent opportunities in the source demonstrate that state and local food procurement concentrates on aggregated grocery bids, fresh produce contracts, and consolidated food service distribution agreements rather than single-item commodity purchases. School districts (including Fairfax County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), and county boards of education issue these solicitations across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Virginia, and Missouri, with response dates typically ranging from April through July 2026. Representative examples include Texas HHSC's supplemental food procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covering 210 line items for state supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato bid (ITB S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026) for 7,616 cases, and Fairfax County Public Schools' master grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) covering 45 schools. None of these recent solicitations reference preserved persian cucumbers as a specified line item, indicating the commodity code tracks a niche product with no current state and local demand signals in the posted opportunities.
