UNSPSC 50605206: Frozen Non GMO creaming onions

The variety of Non GMO onions known as Non GMO creaming onions 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 50605206 Frozen Non GMO creaming onions, a Commodity code, describes shelf-stable and frozen vegetable products state and local governments procure for food service and meal programs. State and local buying under this code spans county social-services departments, state purchasing offices, and school districts sourcing food for senior services, institutional dining, and federally funded meal programs such as National School Lunch and School Breakfast. The code captures individual produce items and frozen vegetables as line-item components within larger food procurement bundles rather than as standalone purchases; vendors typically supply these products as part of broader food-service contracts that bundle proteins, grains, canned goods, and fresh or processed vegetables together.

Recent activity shows Georgia procurement agencies leading the solicitation pattern. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an IWQ on October 13, 2026 (due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of food items including shelf-stable vegetables and other supplies for the Department of Community Services, with delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026) spanning 300+ food items, including frozen and fresh vegetables, for the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs across three schools, with contract period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia also posted a food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026). School districts and counties across Georgia appear to be the primary buyers; all three recent opportunities specified domestic sourcing preferences, compliance with USDA nutrition standards, and F.O.B. destination delivery with tight fulfillment windows (72 hours or next-business-day delivery) to multiple sites or school locations.
