UNSPSC 50604119: Frozen Non GMO recao

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO recao 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.

UNSPSC 50604119 Frozen Non-GMO Cacao is a Commodity code that state and local governments are not actively soliciting under in the recent record. The most recent opportunities tagged to this code are actually for broader food and nutrition products—frozen foods, fresh produce, eggs, spices, ice cream, and general food service supplies for school districts—rather than frozen cacao or cacao products specifically. The code's nominal scope (frozen non-GMO cacao) does not align with what is being purchased in the identified solicitations, which reflect comprehensive school nutrition procurement across produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous food service items rather than specialty cacao ingredients.

The issuing bodies in the recent record are exclusively school districts and districts purchasing through cooperative vehicles: Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Henry County Schools, Dallas Independent School District, and Douglas County School System (bidding on behalf of 30 districts through the GEC Buying Cooperative). All opportunities are in Georgia and Texas, with the majority in Georgia. Representative solicitations include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for Food Supply and Distribution Services (RFP posted January 21, 2026, due February 18, 2026, estimated annual spend $9 million), City Schools of Decatur's IFB for Frozen Foods and Grocery (IFB posted April 16, 2026, due May 15, 2026), and Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (RFQ posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026, with line-item food and non-food products across 300+ items). The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned to frozen cacao procurement.
