UNSPSC 50616805: Canned or jarred Non GMO arrowhead

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO arrowhead 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 50616805 Canned or jarred Non GMO arrowhead, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The source materials show no solicitations specifically calling for arrowhead products; the code appears not to map to active purchasing demand among state agencies, counties, school districts, or other local buyers reviewed in the dataset. The only recent opportunities under this code tier involve broader food categories — canned and jarred goods appear across school nutrition programs, corrections departments, health and human services facilities, and veterans homes, but arrowhead as a distinct line item does not surface in representative solicitations from Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, or Missouri posted between January and June 2026.

State and local procurement under higher-tier food codes (such as canned vegetables, produce, and general grocery supply) shows consistent activity across school nutrition programs, Department of Corrections facilities, and health and human services institutions, particularly in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Oregon. School districts including Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, and Rockwood R-VI School District issued bids for comprehensive food supply covering hundreds of line items with delivery to multiple school sites; HHSC and ODOC posted separate solicitations for supplemental food and institutional meal support. If arrowhead products are to be positioned within state and local procurement channels, they would most likely compete within broader canned-vegetable or specialty-food categories on line-item pricing within these large food-service contracts rather than as standalone commodity solicitations.
