UNSPSC 50606113: Frozen Non GMO space spinach

The variety of Non GMO spinach known as Non GMO space 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 50606113 Frozen Non GMO space spinach is a Commodity code. State and local governments do not appear to buy frozen non-GMO space spinach through recent solicitations; the code shows no relevant procurement activity in the available records. Recent opportunities tagged under this code instead reflect broad food service procurement for school nutrition programs and state food operations — including fresh produce, eggs, dairy, frozen foods, grocery staples, and specialty items for school meals and institutional feeding. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific frozen vegetable product) and actual state and local purchasing patterns suggests either data classification error or that this commodity is not actively procured through the tracked opportunity channels.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, City Schools of Decatur, Early County Board of Education, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Douglas County School System all posting food service bids in the past four months. Georgia and Texas account for the highest recent volume, with secondary activity in Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One, due March 4, 2026), the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026), the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's annual fresh produce bid (due April 23, 2026), and the State of Georgia's fresh produce IFB #4 (due May 27, 2026).
