UNSPSC 50586901: Non GMO bikini peas

The variety of Non GMO sugar peas known as Non GMO bikini peas. 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 50586901 Non GMO bikini peas is a Commodity code with little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally identifies a single produce line item—non-GMO bikini peas—yet the recent solicitations tagged under this code overwhelmingly solicit broad fresh produce portfolios spanning dozens of fruit, vegetable, and protein line items for school nutrition programs, state food operations, and institutional dining. The mismatch between the narrow code scope and the expansive work actually being procured suggests either systematic miscoding in the state and local procurement system or that bikini peas appear only as one item within larger multi-commodity food service contracts rather than as a standalone procurement focus.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with activity concentrated in Georgia and Texas. Recent opportunities include solicitations from Bulloch County School District (IFP for 24 locally sourced produce items, May 4, 2026 due date), Liberty County Board of Education (IFB for comprehensive produce and eggs, April 29, 2026), Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02 for approximately 60 produce line items, April 14, 2026), Early County Board of Education (line-by-line food bid, June 8, 2026), and multiple Texas districts—Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (RFP for fresh produce, May 7, 2026), McAllen Independent School District (RFP 2026-1029 for fresh produce, March 6, 2026), and Austin Independent School District (RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages, March 11, 2026). State purchasing also appears: Georgia issued IFB #4 2027-2026 for fresh produce (May 27, 2026 due) and RFP for food, supplies, and kitchen products (June 22, 2026). Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri round out the geographic spread. Cooperative purchasing vehicles, particularly the GEC Buying Cooperative supporting 30 Georgia school districts, anchor institutional scale. No incumbent vendors or set-asides are specified across the available solicitations.
