UNSPSC 50581809: Non GMO blackeyed beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO blackeyed 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 50581809 Non GMO blackeyed beans, a Commodity code, represents legume procurement for state and local food service operations—schools, parks, healthcare facilities, and state agencies buying fresh or processed beans as components of meal programs and concession services. State and local governments soliciting under this code include school districts, county parks and recreation departments, health care coalitions, and state purchasing offices. The work itself centers on supplying compliant produce or finished food items to institutional kitchens and concession venues, with emphasis on food safety, delivery reliability, volume commitments, and pricing stability. Recent opportunities show demand spanning both direct produce procurement (fresh vegetables) and finished food products (canned or prepared items) through competitive bid and negotiation processes.

Recent activity appears across the Southeast and includes at least three states. Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) on October 8, 2026 for North Collier Regional Park Food Services, due March 6, 2025, seeking a food vendor to operate concessions across multiple park venues with a three-year contract term and local-vendor preference. Marion Health Care Coalition posted a produce solicitation on August 7, 2026 (due August 21, 2026) for fresh fruits and vegetables delivery during the 2026-2027 period. The State of Georgia requested bids on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products; Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, specifying 300+ food items including vegetables, grains, and dairy with domestic sourcing and whole-grain preferences, July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term, and lowest-responsive-bidder award criteria.
