UNSPSC 50606105: Frozen Non GMO iceplant spinach

The variety of Non GMO new zrealand spinach known as Non GMO iceplant spinach 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 50606105 Frozen Non GMO iceplant spinach is a Commodity code that nominally covers frozen specialty produce, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code show little relevant activity specific to frozen spinach or similar items. The recent solicitations instead cover broad food service procurement — groceries, fresh produce, meats, dairy, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs and state operations — with only tangential connection to the narrow frozen spinach commodity. The issuing bodies include school districts (Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Dallas Independent School District, Douglas County School System), state agencies (State of Georgia), and a cooperative buying vehicle (GEC Buying Cooperative). School districts dominate the recent posting volume, driven by annual child nutrition service renewals tied to the July-June fiscal year.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with outliers in Texas. Georgia appears in five recent opportunities: State of Georgia food supplies (IFB, due June 22, 2026), City Schools of Decatur frozen foods (IFB, due May 15, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County fresh produce (sealed bid, due April 23, 2026), and Douglas County System RFP for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026) and food supply distribution (due February 18, 2026). Missouri shows one substantial solicitation from Rockwood R-VI School District for over 900 line items in grocery categories (due April 29, 2026). Dallas Independent School District in Texas issued an RFP for various food products not covered by main bids (due April 2, 2026). The code shows no meaningful activity in frozen spinach procurement; the mismatch between the code name and the actual work being bought suggests that the opportunities were tagged at a higher-tier family or segment level rather than to this specific commodity, making this code unsuitable for targeted pursuit.
