UNSPSC 50584705: Non GMO cremini mushrooms

The variety of Non GMO mushrooms known as Non GMO cremini mushrooms. 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 50584705 Non GMO cremini mushrooms is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity in the dataset. The single sourced opportunity reflects what state and local governments actually buy under this code — specialty fresh produce items for institutional food service — though recent solicitations show no explicit demand for cremini mushrooms specifically. Instead, state and local school districts, state agencies, and county boards of education are actively procuring broad fresh produce categories that include mushrooms as one line item among dozens of fruits and vegetables, but the data does not isolate cremini mushrooms as a standalone procurement focus.

School districts dominate the issuing bodies under related fresh produce codes, with recent activity spanning Georgia (Bulloch County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Glynn County Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Early County Schools), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Texas (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District), and Georgia cooperatives (Douglas County Schools through the GEC Buying Cooperative and the State of Georgia). State agencies appear less frequently than school systems in fresh produce procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the Glynn County Board of Education IFB 27-02 Fresh Produce (sealed bids due April 14, 2026), the Northside Independent School District RFP 2026-048 Fresh Produce for Child Nutrition in San Antonio (sealed bids due May 7, 2026), and the Douglas County Schools RFP SN 26-004 Fresh Produce and Eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026 with estimated annual spend of approximately $5.5 million across two geographic areas). None of the recent opportunities specifically named cremini mushrooms in their scope; mushrooms appear only as incidental line items in broad fresh produce bids encompassing 60–72 produce categories. The code shows little standalone demand signal for non-GMO cremini mushrooms as a discrete commodity within the state and local procurement market covered by these recent solicitations.
