UNSPSC 50584706: Non GMO enoki mushrooms

The variety of Non GMO mushrooms known as Non GMO enoki 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 50584706 Non GMO enoki mushrooms is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not reflect procurement of enoki mushrooms at all. Instead, the sourcing activity shows school districts and state agencies buying broad fresh produce assortments—apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, bell peppers, berries, leafy greens, and dozens of other items—to support child nutrition programs, farm-to-school initiatives, and general school food service operations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests either a tagging error in the state and local database or that enoki mushrooms appear incidentally within larger produce line-item solicitations. Given the complete absence of any reference to enoki mushrooms or specialty mushrooms in representative opportunities, this code shows little decision-relevant recent activity for vendors focused on that specific product line.

School districts dominate the issuing bodies across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri, with the Early County Board of Education, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and Rockwood R-VI School District each conducting RFPs or IFBs for fresh produce during March through June 2026. The Georgia State Department of Education issued parallel broad food-supply and fresh-produce solicitations in May and April 2026. Contract values range from estimated $600,000 annually (Hillsborough County FFVP program) to $4.4 million for Area One of a multi-district cooperative (Douglas County School System via GEC Buying Cooperative). Representative recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education RFP for line-by-line food and produce bids due June 8, 2026, the State of Georgia IFB for fresh produce due May 27, 2026, and the Northside Independent School District RFP for fresh produce due May 7, 2026. The procurement volume and frequency suggest stable institutional demand for produce, but the absence of any enoki mushroom reference in these opportunities indicates that if demand exists for the commodity, it remains unrepresented in recent state and local notice activity.
