UNSPSC 50596852: Dried Non GMO sinquas

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO sinquas 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 50596852 Dried Non GMO sinquas is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its narrow product scope. The code does not appear in any of the representative recent solicitations reviewed; instead, state and local governments are sourcing dried legumes and specialty produce items as line items within much broader school nutrition, institutional food service, and senior meals contracts rather than as standalone procurements. Recent activity under related food supply codes shows school districts, county boards of education, and municipal purchasing departments sourcing comprehensive grocery and produce baskets that may include sinquas or similar items, but the available opportunities do not isolate this Commodity for independent bidding or emphasize it as a category of particular procurement focus.

State and local issuing bodies—principally school districts in Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Mississippi, Virginia, and Texas, along with county boards of education and municipal food service authorities—are consolidating food sourcing under master grocery contracts, fresh produce RFPs, and institutional meal-preparation agreements that span dozens or hundreds of line items. The Bridgeport (Connecticut) Board of Education's June 2026 grocery RFP, Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract, Douglas County (Georgia) School System's food supply RFP for approximately $9 million annually, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's El Paso facility food procurement all emphasize volume purchasing, firm pricing, Buy American compliance, and USDA school nutrition program alignment—but none single out sinquas as a line item or procurement driver. Geographic concentration is in the Southeast (Georgia, Florida, Mississippi) and Mid-Atlantic (Virginia, Connecticut), with activity tied to school nutrition program cycles running July through June. No recent state or local solicitation indexes sinquas as a standalone or emphasized commodity, suggesting the code is not a meaningful business development target in current state and local procurement cycles.
