UNSPSC 50581827: Non GMO haricot beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO haricot 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 50581827 Non GMO haricot beans is a Commodity code that encompasses dried beans and legume products purchased by state and local governments for food service operations, school nutrition programs, and institutional catering. State and local procurement under this code centers on bulk sourcing of beans and legumes meeting food-safety standards, nutritional specifications, and domestic-sourcing preferences where applicable. Issuing bodies soliciting food products under related commodity codes include county parks and recreation departments managing concession food services, school districts operating National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, state government agencies, and healthcare coalitions supporting institutional food operations. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners recently solicited food vendors for North Collier Regional Park concessions via ITN, while the Early County Board of Education posted line-by-line food bids covering meats, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, and miscellaneous products; these broader food procurements encompass legume products within their commodity mix.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia and Florida. The Early County Board of Education issued bids due June 8, 2026 for school nutrition products including vegetables and grains across a three-school district, emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and low-sodium formulations with contract performance July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and kitchen-products solicitation due June 22, 2026. Collier County (Florida) issued an ITN due March 6, 2025 for North Collier Regional Park food services with a 10-point local-vendor preference and three-year contract term. Marion Health Care Coalition (Florida) sought produce proposals due August 21, 2026 for the 2026-2027 fiscal period. The code shows limited recent direct solicitations specifically naming non-GMO haricot beans; opportunities instead appear as line items within broader institutional food-procurement RFQs and ITNs where dried beans and legumes are components of meal-service menus or inventory.
