UNSPSC 50582104: Non GMO peer gynt brussel sprouts

The variety of Non GMO brussel sprouts known as Non GMO peer gynt brussel sprouts. 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 50582104 Non GMO peer gynt brussel sprouts, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual procurement activity state and local bodies are conducting under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code show no pattern of demand for non-GMO brussels sprouts specifically; instead, the opportunities span broad food-service procurement for parks, healthcare facilities, state food supply, and school nutrition programs. State and local governments are using this code to solicit general produce vendors, food-service operators, and catering suppliers rather than to source a particular vegetable variety. The issuing bodies include county parks and recreation departments (Collier County, Florida), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), state agencies (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education, Georgia). The scope of actual work encompasses fresh produce delivery across multiple venues, cafeteria food provisioning under USDA National School Lunch Program standards, concession food services at recreational facilities, and institutional food supply for healthcare operations.

The code shows recent activity in Florida and Georgia. Collier County Parks and Recreation issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) on October 8, 2026 for food services at North Collier Regional Park with a response deadline of March 6, 2025 and a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points. Marion Health Care Coalition posted a produce-vendor RFQ on August 7, 2026 with proposals due August 21, 2026 for 2026–2027 fresh fruit and vegetable supply. The State of Georgia posted a request for bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 deadline. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 for approximately 300+ food items and non-food supplies to support school meal programs, with bids due June 8, 2026 and an emphasis on domestic sourcing and whole-grain compliance. The code's actual use appears to be a catch-all taxonomy placement for produce and food-service contracting rather than a specific sourcing vehicle for the named commodity.
