UNSPSC 50595531: Dried Non GMO pimiento peppers

The variety of Non GMO peppers known as Non GMO pimiento 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 50595531 Dried Non GMO pimiento peppers (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—a single specialty agricultural commodity—does not align with the actual procurement patterns evident in the source data, which document broad food service contracting across school districts, counties, cities, and state agencies throughout 2026.

The recent opportunities tagged under or near this code consistently reflect large-scale food supply solicitations serving institutional meal programs rather than procurement of dried pimientos as a standalone line item. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued an IFB for over 1,100 grocery items for the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services (due June 30, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center under IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia requested fresh produce spanning 200+ line items for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia solicited a Master Grocery K-12 contract covering delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Hillsborough County in Florida issued an ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery services valued at $17,832,659.90 over three years; Bulloch County Schools in Georgia procured comprehensive food products and supplies for the 2026-27 nutrition program; and the City of Meriden's Purchasing Department, on behalf of Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut, released an RFP for commercial groceries, beverages, produce, and USDA Foods with an anticipated value of $3,100,000 for 8,200 students (due February 25, 2026). These procurements all treat dried pimientos—if requested at all—as a minor line item within bulk food supply contracts, not as a commodity code-level procurement driver. No issuer documents a standalone tender specifically for dried non-GMO pimiento peppers, and the code shows no independent market activity among state, county, municipal, or school district buyers as of mid-2026.
