UNSPSC 50604700: Frozen Non GMO malanga

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO malanga 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 50604700 Frozen Non GMO malanga is a Class code that encompasses frozen specialty vegetables and related food products for institutional procurement. State and local governments solicit under this code primarily for food-service supply contracts supporting senior services, public schools, and state nutrition programs. Recent opportunities show that issuing bodies are purchasing shelf-stable and frozen food items — including vegetables, proteins, grains, and dairy — in bulk quantities for meal programs and distribution centers. The mix of buyers includes county boards of commissioners, state procurement offices, and school districts; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and the Early County Board of Education both posted active solicitations in the recent window.

Georgia dominates the recent activity, with three posted opportunities spanning Gwinnett County (an IWQ informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of food items due October 19, 2026), the State of Georgia (a bid for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026), and Early County Board of Education (a line-by-line bid for 300+ food items and non-food products for school meal programs due June 8, 2026). The Gwinnett County solicitation targets shelf-stable products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables with F.O.B. Destination delivery to Lawrenceville, Georgia. The Early County Schools bid emphasizes domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with a contract period running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and allowance for piggybacking by other school districts on identical terms.
