UNSPSC 50591907: Dried Non GMO cheltenham green top beets

The variety of Non GMO beets known as Non GMO cheltenham green top beets 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 50591907 Dried Non GMO Cheltenham Green Top Beets (Commodity) describes a single fresh or processed vegetable product line, but state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant recent solicitation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code—encompassing school nutrition grocery supply contracts, senior meal preparation and delivery, and fresh produce procurement across multiple jurisdictions—do not target dried, non-GMO, or specialty beet varieties as line items. The Commodity code sits within a broader family of food and beverage products that state and local agencies buy in volume for school districts, corrections, senior services, and other institutional feeding operations, but the specific product (dried non-GMO Cheltenham green top beets) appears either absent or implicit within larger multi-item produce or grocery solicitations rather than solicited as a standalone or primary procurement vehicle.

School districts dominate the recent issuing-body mix, with Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Pascagoula-Gautier School District (Mississippi), and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) all posting fresh produce and grocery contracts in the past three months; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hillsborough County (Florida), the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut), the City of Dallas (Texas), and the State of Georgia round out the soliciting bodies with institutional meal service and food supply contracts. Geographic activity clusters in Georgia, with Douglas County, Bulloch County, and Hancock County all issuing competitive produce and food supply solicitations, alongside isolated activity in Connecticut, Florida, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (due June 26, 2026) and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract requiring minimum bids on 76 items from school delivery sections (due April 27, 2026), both of which encompass fresh and processed vegetables but do not isolate specialty or dried beet products as discrete line items.
