UNSPSC 50614111: Canned or jarred Non GMO fenugreek

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO fenugreek 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 50614111 Canned or jarred Non-GMO fenugreek is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity represented in recent state and local solicitations. The recent opportunities tagged under this code instead solicit broad food supply and grocery products for institutional food service — schools, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and state hospitals — spanning produce, proteins, dairy, frozen entrees, pantry staples, condiments, beverages, and consumable supplies such as food service gloves and containers. The issuing bodies are state departments of health and human services, state departments of criminal justice, school districts, and health and human services commissions across multiple jurisdictions. The code shows no recent solicitations specifically for canned or jarred fenugreek or fenugreek-containing products; the tagging appears to be a classification misalignment rather than a signal of active demand for this commodity line.

Recent activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumable products serving state hospitals and supported living centers, with historical contract values around $1.5 million annually and maximum potential values up to $4.5 million over multi-year periods. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, solicited cafeteria food products for distribution across five geographic regions under IFB 304T26300CF (due May 4, 2026), comprising approximately 382 line items with firm fixed pricing on FOB Destination terms. Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) issued IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 services (due April 27, 2026) requiring weekly delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens; Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) solicited grocery items for child nutrition services (due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items with estimated daily participation of approximately 7,800 students; and Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP for food supply and distribution services (due February 18, 2026) serving approximately 25,500 students with annual expenditure around $9 million. The State of Illinois and State of Georgia each posted grocery and food supply solicitations with response dates in June 2026. Because the code is miscoded relative to the actual goods being procured, vendors pursuing institutional food service should verify alignment with broader family-level food supply codes rather than rely on this Commodity classification.
