UNSPSC 50615906: Canned or jarred Non GMO grise de bagnolet shallots

The variety of Non GMO shallots known as Non GMO grise de bagnolet shallots that have 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 50615906 Canned or jarred Non GMO grise de bagnolet shallots is a Commodity code, but the recent opportunities block shows no direct procurement activity for this specific product. The code's nominal scope—specialty preserved shallots—does not match the work state and local governments are actually buying under codes in this procurement family. Recent solicitations from Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County, Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice are sourcing canned and jarred goods across much broader commodity families: canned tomatoes, canned vegetables, canned proteins, prepared foods, and general food-service supplies for state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and senior-services operations. The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments, county boards, school districts, and state corrections agencies across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon.

The geographic spread of recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with additional activity in Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods and supplies at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026, covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food-service supplies with F.O.B. Destination delivery within seven days; Gwinnett County's informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products due October 19, 2026, delivered to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident bidder preferences at 5 percent; and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for a comprehensive food procurement across four school locations due June 15, 2026, with Buy American Act compliance required.
