UNSPSC 50601822: Frozen Non GMO french navy beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO french navy beans that have been frozen 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 50601822 Frozen Non GMO french navy beans, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within state and local food procurement. State and local governments solicit frozen legumes primarily through school districts and county departments sourcing ingredients for food-service operations — cafeterias, senior services programs, and nutrition assistance initiatives. The code captures individual shelf-stable or frozen protein components that roll into larger food-supply contracts or line-by-line bid structures. Issuing bodies include county purchasing offices (typically on behalf of social services or senior programs), state department of education and procurement offices, and independent school district food-service operations. The work itself is straightforward procurement of branded or approved-equivalent products meeting food-safety and labeling standards, with delivery requirements, temperature control where applicable, and compliance with federal nutrition rules such as Buy American provisions and USDA specifications.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, where Gwinnett County issued an informal written quote (IWQ) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables due October 19, 2026, and Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line bid in May 2026 for 300+ food items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with bids due June 8, 2026 and a contract term running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia itself solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products in May 2026 with bids due June 22, 2026, though the full scope was contained in an attached document. Frozen navy beans and similar legumes appear as line items within these broader food procurements rather than as standalone solicitations; vendors typically compete by line item within school-district or county food-service contracts, with award based on lowest responsive and responsible bidding and pricing evaluated per unit of measure.
