UNSPSC 50601833: Frozen Non GMO kidney beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO kidney 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 50601833 Frozen Non GMO kidney beans is a Commodity code covering shelf-stable and frozen legume products purchased by state and local food service operations, principally school districts and county social-service departments for nutrition assistance programs, institutional meal service, and emergency food assistance. State and local buyers under this code source frozen and canned kidney beans as component ingredients for bulk food procurement, typically bundled with broader food-item line solicitations rather than as standalone commodity purchases. The issuing bodies span county governments managing senior services and social assistance, state departments of education coordinating school nutrition programs, and school districts operating National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs across multiple school sites.

Recent activity centers on Georgia jurisdictions. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote (IWQ) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for the Department of Community Services, with delivery required to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026 and response due October 19, 2026. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids in May 2026 for approximately 300+ food items supporting school meal programs across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026 and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia issued a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid in May 2026 with response due June 22, 2026. All three solicitations reflect institutional food service and nutrition assistance purchasing at the county and state level, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, compliance with USDA nutrition standards, and fixed or index-linked pricing over multi-month or annual contract terms.
