UNSPSC 50604902: Frozen Non GMO garlic mustard

The variety of Non GMO mustard known as Non GMO garlic mustard 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 50604902 Frozen Non GMO garlic mustard is a Commodity code nominally focused on a single frozen vegetable product, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little to no actual procurement activity matching the narrow product scope. The most recent opportunities in the source block—spanning February through June 2026—cover broad school nutrition, district food service, and state produce procurement across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas, none of which explicitly identify frozen garlic mustard or garlic mustard products as line items. School districts and state agencies soliciting under this code are actually procuring comprehensive fresh and frozen produce assortments, specialty grocery items, dairy, meats, and food service supplies to support National School Lunch Program operations, child nutrition services, and general state food needs. The issuing bodies include county school systems (Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), independent school districts (Dallas ISD, Rockwood R-VI), and state purchasing offices (State of Georgia). Several districts appear as repeat buyers of multi-category food products across multiple fiscal cycles.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and extends into Missouri and Texas. Recent representative solicitations include the Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (RFQ, due June 8, 2026) seeking 300+ food items and 60+ non-food supplies for school breakfast and lunch programs; the State of Georgia's Fresh Produce IFB #4 2027-2026 (IFB, due May 27, 2026); the City Schools of Decatur's Frozen Foods and Grocery procurement (IFB, due May 15, 2026, with optional pre-bid April 29, 2026); the Douglas County School System's Fresh Produce and Eggs RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative (RFP, due March 4, 2026, estimated at $5.5 million across 30 districts); and Dallas ISD's Various Food Products RFP (RFP, due April 2, 2026) for the 2026-2027 school year. The code shows no recent opportunities explicitly soliciting frozen non-GMO garlic mustard as a named product line, suggesting the commodity code may be a cataloging artifact rather than a reflection of active procurement demand under this specific narrow product definition.
