UNSPSC 50595523: Dried Non GMO habanero peppers

The variety of Non GMO peppers known as Non GMO habanero peppers 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 50595523 Dried Non GMO habanero peppers is a Commodity code. State and local governments do not actively procure dried habanero peppers as a standalone line item; the code appears in procurement databases but generates minimal standalone solicitation activity. The recent opportunities block contains no bids specifically for habanero peppers, dried or fresh. School districts, county boards of education, city purchasing departments, and state nutrition programs are the primary issuing bodies in the broader fresh produce and grocery procurement space, but their solicitations name habanero peppers only incidentally, if at all, within much larger food-supply contracts that span hundreds of line items.

The code shows no discernible recent activity concentrated in any single state or region. Recent state and local procurement under related codes—fresh produce (IFB #SN002-2027, Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia, due June 26, 2026; RFP SN 26-004, Douglas County School System, Georgia, due March 4, 2026) and comprehensive grocery bids (Bridgeport Board of Education, Connecticut, due June 30, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia, due April 27, 2026; Meriden Public Schools, Connecticut, due February 25, 2026)—list dozens to hundreds of produce items, but dried specialty peppers do not appear as named line items in the available solicitation summaries. Procurement professionals seeking to pursue habanero pepper supply contracts should monitor school nutrition programs and institutional food service bids that explicitly call out specialty or ethnic cuisine ingredients, as those are rare in the public record reviewed here.
