UNSPSC 50614905: Canned or jarred Non GMO southern mustard

The variety of Non GMO mustard known as Non GMO southern mustard 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 50614905 Canned or jarred Non-GMO southern mustard is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable condiment products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations. Based on recent solicitations, the code captures mustard and other condiment items acquired by state health and human services agencies, correctional departments, school districts, and county social services programs for canteen, cafeteria, and meal-service operations at supported living centers, prisons, schools, and senior services facilities. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state health and human services commissions (Texas, Illinois), state departments of corrections (Oregon), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and county sheriff and community services departments. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple recent IFBs for food and consumable products spanning fiscal years 2026 and 2027.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026), which encompasses prepared foods, sauces, and food service supplies; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including sauces for the Department of Community Services (informal written quotes due October 19, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes and related shelf-stable products (bids due June 19, 2026).

School nutrition programs in Georgia and multi-facility state supported living center supply chains in Texas generate recurring procurement cycles with annual contract awards.
