The variety of Non GMO artichokes known as Non GMO gros camus de bretagne artichokes.

UNSPSC 50621505 Non GMO Gros Camus de Bretagne Artichoke Purees is a Commodity code. State and local procurement activity under this code does not reflect the specific artichoke puree product named in the code title. Recent solicitations tagged to this code cover broad food and consumable procurement for state agencies, school districts, and county services — including shelf-stable foods, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, condiments, canned goods, and food service supplies. The issuing-body mix spans state health and human services commissions, state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and state comptroller offices. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears multiple times across the recent opportunities, soliciting consumables and food products for state supported living centers.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon based on recent postings. The Oregon Department of Corrections sought approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 2026, IFB, due June 19), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission released multiple IFBs for food and consumable products serving state hospitals and supported living centers across fiscal year 2027, including HHS0018082 for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (October 2026, IFB, due October 23) and HHS0017449 for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (June 2026, IFB, due July 13, with prior-period value of $1.5 million).

Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools (both Georgia) released comprehensive food bids for school nutrition programs covering hundreds of line items across multiple categories.

The code shows active procurement but little evidence that Non GMO Gros Camus de Bretagne artichoke purees specifically are being solicited — the tagged opportunities reflect generalist food service and consumables buying unrelated to this specialized commodity.
