NIGP codes for 50602608

Definition

The variety of Non GMO cauliflower known as Non GMO orange bouquet cauliflowers that has 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.

About UNSPSC 50602608

UNSPSC 50602608 Frozen Non GMO orange bouquet cauliflowers, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its narrow product specification. The code nominally describes a single frozen vegetable product, yet the recent opportunities tagged to it reflect broader food procurement by state and local governments—specifically shelf-stable pantry staples, institutional food-service items supporting school lunch and breakfast programs, and general kitchen supplies for senior services and school districts. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state-level food procurement (State of Georgia), and school districts (Early County Board of Education), indicating fragmented demand across multiple jurisdiction types rather than concentrated repeat buyers for this specific commodity.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia. Gwinnett County posted an IWQ on October 13, 2026 (due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items—peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables—for delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center, with delivery required within 72 hours of order and all items received by December 7, 2026. The State of Georgia solicited bids on May 15, 2026 for food, supplies, and other kitchen products (due June 22, 2026) with full scope and pricing in an attached document. Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for 300+ food items and 60+ non-food and paper supplies supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with a contract period running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and award based on lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The mismatch between the code's frozen cauliflower specification and the actual procurement of institutional pantry staples and school-lunch-program items suggests the code may not be the primary vehicle for frozen-vegetable procurement at the state and local level.
