UNSPSC 50582902: Non GMO en cornet de bordeaux chicory

The variety of Non GMO chicory known as Non GMO en cornet de bordeaux chicory. 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 50582902 Non GMO en cornet de bordeaux chicory (Commodity) does not align with documented state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific chicory variety, yet the recent opportunities dataset shows no solicitations for chicory, endive, or related specialty produce items by this name or specification.

Recent state and local activity under this code identifier is absent. The opportunities posted to the GovTribe database under or near this taxonomy entry reflect broad-based fresh produce, food service, and child nutrition procurement—including initiatives from school districts in Texas, Missouri, and Georgia; state purchasing offices; and county boards of education—but none target chicory or cornet de bordeaux varieties specifically. Early County Schools (Georgia), Northside Independent School District (Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) have solicited fresh produce under IFB, RFP, and ITB vehicles between February and May 2026, but produce line items include apples, bananas, peppers, broccoli, carrots, leafy greens, tomatoes, and eggs—not specialty chicory. State of Georgia procurements for fresh produce (IFB #4 2027-2026, posted April 20, 2026, due May 27, 2026) and food supplies (PE55645NONST2026000000009, posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026) similarly lack chicory specifications. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual demand suggests either a cataloging error or a commodity with minimal state and local institutional buyer interest in the current procurement cycle.
