UNSPSC 50584011: Non GMO fenugreek

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO fenugreek. 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 50584011 Non GMO fenugreek (Commodity) covers specialty food ingredients procured by state and local governments for food service operations. State and local solicitations under this code show activity across school districts, county parks and recreation departments, health care coalitions, and state procurement offices. The work involves supplying fresh produce, specialty food items, and ingredients to support institutional food service — cafeterias, concessions, and meal programs — with compliance to food safety, sourcing, and quality standards. Recent opportunities emphasize domestic sourcing preferences, food-safety documentation, delivery logistics, and adherence to regulatory standards such as USDA nutrition rules and health department requirements.

Recent activity appears primarily in the Southeast, with documented solicitations from Georgia (state level and Early County Board of Education), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and Florida-based health care coalitions. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid (ITB, due June 8, 2026) covering 300+ food items including meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, and grains with emphasis on whole-grain, low-sodium, and no-added-sugar formulations; Collier County Board of County Commissioners sought food vendors for concession operations at North Collier Regional Park via Invitation to Negotiate (ITN, due March 6, 2025) with a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points; and Marion Health Care Coalition posted a produce proposal request (due August 21, 2026) for fresh fruits and vegetables. The State of Georgia also issued a broader food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid (due June 22, 2026). School districts and county parks represent the primary repeat buyers in the recent posting cycle.
