UNSPSC 50581802: Non GMO appaloosa beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO appaloosa beans. 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 50581802 Non GMO appaloosa beans is a Commodity code that covers specialty bean products sourced under state and local food procurement. Recent opportunities show the code active in institutional food service—particularly school nutrition programs, healthcare foodservice, and county park concessions—where buyers seek commodity produce and food items to support meal programs, concession operations, and kitchen stock. The issuing bodies include school districts, county governments, health-care coalitions, and state purchasing offices. State and local governments buy produce, specialty grains, and packaged food items under this code as line items within larger food-service and kitchen-supply contracts, often bundled with broader commodity food categories (meats, dairy, vegetables, grains, and condiments) rather than as standalone bean purchases.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Florida, and multi-state procurement. The Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line IFB on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300+ food items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, including vegetables, fruits, and grains with domestic sourcing preference and USDA whole-grain compliance; Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate on October 8, 2026 (due March 6, 2025) for food services at North Collier Regional Park, requiring diverse food and beverage concessions across multiple venues; Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce proposals on August 7, 2026 (due August 21, 2026) for fresh fruits and vegetables for the 2026-2027 period; and the State of Georgia issued a request for bids on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products across state operations. School districts and county agencies dominate recent volume under this code.
