UNSPSC 50601843: Frozen Non GMO nuna beans

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO nuna 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 50601843 Frozen Non GMO nuna beans, a Commodity code, encompasses shelf-stable and refrigerated protein and vegetable products state and local procurement offices purchase for institutional food service — including senior services, school nutrition programs, and general food inventory. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect demand from county social-services departments, state procurement offices, and school districts seeking bulk food inventory to support meal programs and senior nutritional services. The scope of work includes frozen and canned proteins, vegetables, and staple grain and legume products, often with specifications for domestic sourcing, USDA nutritional compliance, and approved-equivalent vendor options to ensure competition among food distributors.

The most recent activity clusters in Georgia, with Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posting an IWQ 140229 informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables with delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; the State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (PE55645NONST2026000000009) in May 2026; and Early County Board of Education released an FY27 food bid (PE55045NONST2027000000006) due June 8, 2026 covering 300+ food items and fluid milk for school lunch and breakfast programs across three schools under a July 2026 through June 2027 contract term. Award in school-district and county food bids typically flows to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a line-item or total-cost basis, with vendors expected to carry general liability insurance, maintain HACCP plans, comply with Buy American and E-Verify requirements, and accept price-escalation constraints tied to USDA or CPI indices.
