UNSPSC 50581850: Non GMO wax beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO wax 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 50581850 Non GMO wax beans is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh produce procurement, including vegetable supply for food service operations across institutional and recreational settings. State and local buyers under this code acquire fresh vegetables—including wax beans and other commodity produce items—as components of broader food-service contracts serving schools, health facilities, parks, and county operations. The issuing bodies span school districts, county governments, regional health coalitions, and special-purpose food-service authorities. Recent solicitations show that produce procurement often flows through either dedicated food-service RFPs that name specific produce lines or broader food-supply ITNs and IFBs where fresh vegetables compete for award alongside proteins, dairy, grains, and supplies.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southeast. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026 covering approximately 300+ food items including fresh vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and low-sodium formulations; Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) posted an Invitation to Negotiate on October 8, 2026 for food services at North Collier Regional Park due March 6, 2025, requiring diverse food and beverage options including produce; and Marion Health Care Coalition posted a produce proposal solicitation on August 7, 2026 due August 21, 2026 for fresh fruits and vegetables delivery across the 2026-2027 contract period. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 due June 22, 2026, the full scope of which is contained in an attached document. School districts and county governments dominate recent bidding, with emerging participation from health coalitions and park authorities.
