UNSPSC 50614305: Canned or jarred Non GMO rowel trero kohlrabi

The variety of Non GMO kohlrabi known as Non GMO rowel trero 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 50614305 Canned or jarred Non GMO rowel trero kohlrabi, a Commodity code, nominally describes specialty preserved vegetables, but recent state and local solicitations show that this code tags general food and consumable procurement for institutional food service — chiefly the supply of shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, condiments, and food service supplies to state health and human services facilities, state corrections departments, and school nutrition programs. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, state corrections and criminal justice departments, county boards of commissioners, municipal and county school districts, and state procurement divisions acting on behalf of multiple agencies. Recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods (prepared foods, containers, napkins, trays, straws) at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center due October 23, 2026; the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, soups, canned vegetables) for senior services due October 19, 2026; and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for hundreds of line items across produce, meat, dairy, condiments, and cafeteria supplies for four school locations due June 15, 2026. The code also appears in the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products (beef, chicken, cheese, grains, beverages, canned vegetables, fruits) supplying TDCJ warehouses across five geographic areas, due May 4, 2026.

Activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Department of State Health Services dominate the recent record, with multiple overlapping solicitations for state supported living centers and state hospitals spanning food products, consumables, and kitchen supplies; the largest is IFB HHS0016792v2 (due March 19, 2026) for 210 line items serving hospitals and supported living centers statewide with a maximum potential three-year value of $4.5 million. Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County, Burke County, Gwinnett County) are active buyers of comprehensive food and supply packages for school nutrition programs with approximately 300–400 line items each, typically due in May or June for fiscal-year supply beginning July 1. The Oregon Department of Corrections procured 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 19, 2026 due date) with Oregon-fabricated and resident-bidder preferences at 5 percent. Illinois and other states show limited recent activity. Vendors responding to these solicitations typically submit firm, fixed unit pricing on detailed line-item sheets, provide three references and company qualification narratives, ensure FOB Destination delivery within 7 to 72 hours of order, comply with E-Verify and debarment certifications, and maintain liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence minimum. School districts impose Buy American Act compliance (51 percent domestic agricultural content) and HACCP plans; corrections and health agencies require USDA grade compliance and price adjustments capped at specified percentages. Set-asides or minority-business preferences do not appear in recent solicitations.
