UNSPSC 50614703: Canned or jarred Non GMO coco malanga

The variety of Non GMO malanga known as Non GMO coco malanga 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 50614703 Canned or jarred Non GMO coco malanga is a Commodity code that state and local governments purchase as a specialized food ingredient for institutional meal service, though recent procurement activity under this code is minimal and does not reflect consistent demand. The most recent opportunities in the dataset show state and local food service procurement concentrated in broad grocery and produce categories—fresh produce, proteins, dairy, canned goods, and prepared foods—rather than specific niche items like non-GMO coco malanga. State and local issuing bodies procuring food supplies include school districts (K-12 nutrition programs across multiple states), state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions operating hospitals and supported living centers, and state veterans' homes. School districts appear as the dominant repeat buyer, with recent solicitations from Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Illinois state agencies also issue recurring food service solicitations.

Geographic activity clusters heavily in the Southeast (Georgia, with multiple school district procurements), the Midwest (Missouri, Illinois), the Pacific Northwest (Oregon), and Mid-Atlantic states (Virginia), with Texas representing a significant buyer through its health and human services procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical value of $1.5 million for the prior year), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract IFB 2000004323 supplying 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). The code itself shows no direct solicitation activity in the recent opportunities block; canned or jarred non-GMO coco malanga does not appear as a line item in any of the posted food service requests, suggesting the commodity lacks meaningful state and local procurement volume or that buyers classify it under broader canned-goods or produce categories rather than by specific SKU.
