UNSPSC 50582107: Non GMO widgeon brussel sprouts

The variety of Non GMO brussel sprouts known as Non GMO widgeon 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 50582107 Non GMO widgeon brussel sprouts is a Commodity code that nominally names a single produce item but shows little recent activity specifically aligned to that product. The recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code span broad food-service procurement — concession operations at regional parks, produce sourcing for health care coalitions, institutional food supplies for state agencies, and school-lunch program items — rather than purchases of non-GMO widgeon brussel sprouts as a discrete line item. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners (Collier County), health care organizations (Marion Health Care Coalition), state procurement offices (Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education). The scope of work across these solicitations ranges from full food-service vendor contracts managing multiple concurrent venues to line-by-line produce and food-supply bids for institutional meal programs, reflecting the broader food-supply and food-service universe rather than a narrow commodity focus.

Geographic activity centers on Florida (Collier County) and Georgia (state-level and Early County Schools) based on the most recent postings; Marion Health Care Coalition's state is not named in the source. Representative recent opportunities include Collier County's Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (posted October 8, 2026, due March 6, 2025) with a 10-point local-vendor preference; the State of Georgia's bid for food, supplies, and other kitchen products (posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026); and Early County Board of Education's line-by-line bid for approximately 300+ food items and 60+ non-food supplies supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program (posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal product and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests either misclassification in the state and local procurement systems or that this code is rarely used as its name implies.
