UNSPSC 50595406: Dried Non GMO zipper cream peas

The variety of Non GMO peas known as Non GMO zipper cream peas 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 50595406 Dried Non-GMO Zipper Cream Peas, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local solicitations. The code identifies a single produce item—dried cream peas with non-GMO certification—but the recent opportunities block shows no matching procurement activity for this specific commodity.

The recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this UNSPSC cluster reflects a much broader scope: school districts, county boards of education, state agencies, and municipalities are procuring comprehensive grocery and food-service contracts that span hundreds of line items across produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared meals, with only incidental reference to individual dried-commodity items. Solicitations from the Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Douglas County Schools, Meriden Public Schools, the City of Dallas, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and the State of Georgia all name fresh or frozen vegetables, fruits, and grains as part of master food-supply agreements, but none isolate dried cream peas or similar single-SKU dried legumes as a standalone procurement vehicle. The tagged opportunities span the full food-service supply chain—from bulk grocery distribution under master contracts worth millions annually, to fresh-produce procurement for school nutrition programs, to prepared meal delivery services—indicating that UNSPSC 50595406 may be a classification artifact that does not correspond to discrete purchasing activity in the current market. Vendors pursuing this code should verify that state and local procurement offices are actually using it to tag opportunities before investing in sales-pipeline development; the evidence suggests this commodity code does not drive material procurement volume or frequency at the state and local level.
