UNSPSC 50614303: Canned or jarred Non GMO lanro kohlrabi

The variety of Non GMO kohlrabi known as Non GMO lanro kohlrabi 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 50614303 Canned or jarred Non GMO lanro kohlrabi (Commodity) appears rarely in state and local procurement activity; instead, governments in this dataset are sourcing a much broader spectrum of shelf-stable and prepared foods — canned vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and food service consumables — under what are nominally commodity-level food codes. The state and local issuers soliciting under food-supply codes run across state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois), counties (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County), independent school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools), and correctional and health-care facilities. Recent opportunities show food procurement concentrated in facilities with captive foodservice operations: state supported living centers, correctional institutions, school cafeterias, and senior services programs. The work involves standardized specification-driven bidding with delivery within 72 hours to seven days, F.O.B. destination pricing, and compliance with USDA grade standards, FDA labeling, and facility-specific shelf-life or nutritional requirements.

Geographic concentration is strongest in Texas and Georgia, where the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and state correctional authority have issued multiple IFBs for annual and multi-year food supply contracts, and where Georgia school districts (Burke County, Ben Hill County) and Gwinnett County are actively competing for school-nutrition and senior-services supply. The Oregon Department of Corrections and Illinois have also posted food solicitations in the recent window. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, 22 line items, due October 23, 2026), the Gwinnett County informal written quote IWQ 140229 (35 line items of shelf-stable products for senior services, due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with 5% Oregon-preference applied), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB 304T-26-300CF for 382 line items of cafeteria foods across five geographic distribution areas (extended due date May 4, 2026). Contract values where disclosed range from $1.5 million annually (HHSC El Paso) to $4.5 million over three years (HHSC supplemental food statewide). The code shows steady activity but no evidence of significant recent awards to named vendors.
