UNSPSC 50593213: Dried Non GMO champ corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO champ corn that has 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 50593213 Dried Non GMO champ corn is a Commodity code that maps to school nutrition procurement and institutional food service, though the recent opportunities block shows limited direct solicitation for this specific product line. State and local governments buying under this code procure dried corn and other commodity agricultural ingredients as components of larger food-service contracts, particularly for school nutrition programs operating under National School Lunch Program requirements and Buy American Provision mandates (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content). Issuing bodies include school districts, county boards of education, state health and human services agencies, and county commissioners' offices managing senior nutrition and institutional meal programs. The scope spans both fresh and processed agricultural commodities sold as part of comprehensive grocery and food-service supply contracts rather than as standalone line items.

Recent opportunities reflect broader institutional food purchasing across Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Mississippi, and Florida. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued an IFB in June 2026 (BNB052266) for over 1,100 line items of grocery items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, with a contract term of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and a contract term running September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce under IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) for the 2026-27 school year, and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida issued ITB-26-00289 for senior meal preparation and delivery services valued at $17,832,659.90 over three years. The code shows no standout activity under this specific commodity code in the recent block; most procurement is bundled into broader food-service and grocery RFQs and IFBs where dried corn and similar commodities appear as line items rather than as focal points of separate solicitations.
