UNSPSC 50616832: Canned or jarred Non GMO hop sprouts

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO hop sprouts 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 50616832 Canned or jarred Non GMO hop sprouts is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope — the most recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for hop sprouts or hop products of any kind.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect food-service and institutional cafeteria procurement across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, spanning state health and human services facilities, county nutrition programs, school districts, and correctional departments. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (posted October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026) for 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (posted October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned proteins, rice, pasta, and vegetables for senior services, and the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026). None of these opportunities involve hop sprouts or any hop-based product. The mismatch between the code's product definition and the actual buying activity suggests either a data-entry error in the tagging or that hop sprouts are not materially procured by state and local jurisdictions at present. Business development professionals should verify with issuing bodies whether hop sprouts fall within their commodity scope before pursuing opportunities under this code.
