UNSPSC 50585432: Non GMO poblano peppers

The variety of Non GMO peppers known as Non GMO poblano peppers. 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 50585432 Non GMO poblano peppers, a Commodity code, encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local governments, particularly school districts, health care coalitions, and county parks departments. Recent solicitations show state and local bodies buying fresh vegetables, fruits, and related produce items for food-service operations—from school lunch and breakfast programs to park concessions and health care facilities. The scope ranges from individual commodity sourcing (such as poblano peppers) to broad produce categories bundled into larger food-service contracts. Issuing bodies span school districts, county governments, health care organizations, and state departments. Early County Board of Education, Collier County, Marion Health Care Coalition, and the State of Georgia represent the mix of jurisdictions recently soliciting under or near this code's scope.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Florida, with secondary activity in other states. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line bid for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits, due June 8, 2026. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) posted an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park requiring diverse produce offerings, due March 6, 2025. Marion Health Care Coalition posted a produce-proposals solicitation due August 21, 2026 covering fresh fruits and vegetables for the 2026-2027 contract period. The State of Georgia issued a broad food-supplies bid due June 22, 2026. These solicitations reflect seasonal availability adjustments, domestic-sourcing preferences, food-safety compliance requirements, and multi-location or multi-venue delivery obligations typical of public food-service procurement under this code.
