UNSPSC 50615300: Canned or jarred Non GMO peanuts

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO peanuts 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 50615300 Canned or jarred non-GMO peanuts is a Class code. State and local procurement offices rarely solicit directly under this narrow commodity line; recent opportunities show canned and processed food products procured as part of larger, multi-category institutional food supply contracts rather than as standalone peanut-specific solicitations. The code sees occasional activity in school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers, where canned and jarred goods appear as line items within broader RFPs and IFBs covering dozens or hundreds of food products. Issuing bodies include school districts (Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Ben Hill County in Georgia, Burke County in Georgia, Fairfax County in Virginia, Douglas County in Georgia, Liberty County in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia), state correctional and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and state veteran facilities (Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy). No incumbent vendors for this specific commodity are named in recent postings, and no set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises appear in the sourced opportunities.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Oregon, with recent food supply procurements also posted in Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include Ben Hill County Schools' FY 26-27 school nutrition food bid (IFB, due June 15, 2026) covering multiple food categories across four school locations; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period); and the Rockwood R-VI School District's Child Nutrition Services grocery items procurement (electronic bids due April 29, 2026) spanning over 900 line items with canned goods, snacks, and dry staples. Canned tomatoes, not peanuts, dominate recent single-product procurements from Oregon Department of Corrections (approximately 7,616 cases, due June 19, 2026), and tomato paste (approximately 1,904 cases, due March 9, 2026), with historical pricing at $13.75 to $27.75 per case depending on product and vendor. Larger food supply contracts spanning July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 are the norm in school nutrition and institutional settings, with responses due in late spring and awards anticipated by mid-June.
