UNSPSC 50586860: Non GMO tepeguaje

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO tepeguaje. 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 50586860 Non GMO tepeguaje, a Commodity code, does not show activity aligned with its nominal scope in recent state and local procurement. The code appears in a procurement database record but the opportunities tagged to it involve general food services contracting — concessions at regional parks, produce delivery to healthcare coalitions, generic food supplies to state agencies, and National School Lunch Program provisioning to school districts — rather than tepeguaje, a legume-based product specific to certain regional cuisines. State and local governments procure food services and supplies across multiple issuing-body types, but the opportunities posted under this code do not target tepeguaje or justify pursuit based on the commodity's actual market presence in public-sector buying.

The recent opportunities spanning Collier County, Marion Health Care Coalition, the State of Georgia, and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) reflect broader food-service and produce contracting across counties, healthcare entities, state agencies, and school districts. None of the solicitations—Collier County's Invitation to Negotiate for park concessions (due March 6, 2025), Marion Health Care Coalition's produce vendor proposals (due August 21, 2026), Georgia's food and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026), or Early County Board of Education's National School Lunch Program food and non-food line-by-line bid (due June 8, 2026)—mention or source tepeguaje. The code shows no relevant recent activity; vendors pursuing this commodity should monitor procurement channels for specialty-ingredient solicitations or ethnic-foods programs rather than rely on this code's current classification as an entry point.
