UNSPSC 50604107: Frozen Non GMO cipolinos

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO cipolinos 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 50604107 Frozen Non GMO cipolinos is a Commodity code covering specialty produce items purchased by state agencies and school districts for food service operations. The code appears in procurement activity where governments source frozen vegetable products meeting non-GMO specifications for institutional kitchen use, typically as part of broader food-service supply contracts rather than standalone cipolino purchases. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include state purchasing offices, school districts, and county education boards that consolidate food procurement across multiple facilities or campuses.

Recent activity shows the State of Georgia and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) both posting food-supply solicitations in May 2026. The State of Georgia issued a general food, supplies, and kitchen products RFQ (PE55645NONST2026000000009) with a due date of June 22, 2026; the Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program (PE55045NONST2027000000006) due June 8, 2026, specifying approximately 300+ food items including vegetables, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. The school district contract runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with renewal options. Georgia represents the primary observed state activity under this code in the recent window, with procurement activity centered on school meal programs and state food-service operations.
