UNSPSC 50586833: Non GMO horseradish

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO horseradish. 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 50586833 Non GMO horseradish, a Commodity code, represents a niche ingredient input into broader food-service procurement. State and local governments do not solicit non-GMO horseradish as a standalone line item in the recent-opportunities record; the code appears to be a subcategory within larger food and produce acquisition programs run by health-care coalitions, county parks departments, state purchasing offices, and school districts. When horseradish or similar specialty produce appears in solicitations, it flows through generalized food or produce line-item requests rather than targeted commodity buys.

The recent opportunities under or near this code span multiple issuing bodies — Collier County Board of County Commissioners (food concessions at regional parks via Invitation to Negotiate, proposals due March 6, 2025), Marion Health Care Coalition (fresh produce proposals, due August 21, 2026), the State of Georgia (food, supplies, and kitchen products, due June 22, 2026), and Early County Board of Education in Georgia (food and non-food products for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, bids due June 8, 2026). The geographic activity centers on Florida and Georgia, with Georgia showing repeat state-level and school-district procurement. None of the representative opportunities explicitly itemizes non-GMO horseradish, signaling that this Commodity code likely sees minimal standalone volume in state and local contracting and that demand flows through broader produce or food-service categories rather than horseradish-specific requisitions.
