UNSPSC 50604616: Frozen Non GMO lamb’s or mache lettuce

The variety of Non GMO lettuce known as Non GMO lamb's lettuces 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 50604616 Frozen Non GMO lamb's or mache lettuce is a Commodity code that nominally describes specialty frozen lettuces but shows little relevant recent procurement activity at the state and local level. The seven posted opportunities in the recent-opportunities block span Georgia, Missouri, and Texas school districts and state agencies procuring food and grocery items for school nutrition programs and state operations—yet none of the solicitations name frozen lettuce, lamb's lettuce, or mache lettuce as a line item or scope element. The State of Georgia's May 2026 IFB for fresh produce, the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's April 2026 bid for fresh produce covering 72 items from apples to bulk vegetables, and the Douglas County School System's February 2026 RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts all focus on commodity-volume fresh produce procurement with no reference to specialty frozen lettuces. Similarly, school district bids from Early County, Rockwood R-VI, City Schools of Decatur, and Dallas ISD soliciting grocery items, frozen foods, and various food products for child nutrition services do not enumerate frozen lamb's lettuce or mache as a specified or bundled commodity. The code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought under recent state and local solicitations do not align.

The recent opportunities block contains no evidence of state or local procurement activity specifically for frozen non-GMO lamb's lettuce or mache lettuce. School districts and state agencies in Georgia, Missouri, and Texas are actively procuring fresh and frozen grocery items, produce, and food-service supplies through RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs with response dates from February through June 2026, but these solicitations address mainstream food-service categories—fresh apples, bananas, leafy greens like lettuce generically, frozen entrees, dairy, and staple groceries—rather than specialty frozen lettuces. Pursue other UNSPSC codes if your firm supplies commodity fresh produce, mainstream frozen foods, or school nutrition items; this code does not reflect current state and local demand for the specific product it nominally describes.
