UNSPSC 50591820: Dried Non GMO flageolet beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO flageolet beans that have been dried for preservation. 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 50591820 Dried Non GMO flageolet beans (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. None of the solicitations posted over the six months preceding July 2026 — spanning school district nutrition programs, county senior meal services, state food supply contracts, and municipal catering — specifically name dried flageolet beans or equivalent dried legume line items. The recent opportunities detail comprehensive food supply contracts for K-12 school nutrition, senior meal programs, and institutional dining that enumerate hundreds of line items across produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and condiments, but flageolet beans do not surface as a separately solicited commodity. The Commodity code's nominal scope does not align with the broader institutional food procurement activity visible in the state and local market during this period.

State and local jurisdictions that actively solicit food products — including Bridgeport Public Schools (Connecticut), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut), Hillsborough County (Florida), the State of Georgia, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission — typically consolidate dried goods, grains, and legumes into broader commodity or line-item categories within master grocery or food supply contracts rather than issuing separate solicitations for individual dried bean varieties. The absence of flageolet-specific procurement signals in this code warrants a watch-and-skip posture until activity emerges.
