UNSPSC 50621807: Non GMO black gram bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO black gram beans. 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 50621807 Non GMO black gram bean purees is a Commodity code that captures legume-based food products for institutional food service — specifically bean purees and similar legume pastes used in state and local cafeterias, kitchens, and nutritional programs. The recent solicitations tagged with this code, however, show a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local governments actually buy: the block contains no opportunities specifically requesting black gram bean purees or non-GMO legume products. Instead, the opportunities describe broad food procurement for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health and human services agencies seeking dozens or hundreds of line items across fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, canned goods, and prepared foods. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its specific commodity definition.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Burke County Public Schools, Georgia; Douglas County School System, Georgia), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, Georgia Department of Education), and correctional and health facilities. The geographic spread spans Texas, Oregon, Illinois, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), with prior purchase history of $1.5 million; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five warehouse locations (response deadline May 4, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 supplying 45 schools and distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). Because the code's specific commodity — black gram bean purees — does not appear in any of the recent solicitations, firms pursuing this commodity should note that state and local procurement opportunities under this code tag are not currently demonstrating demand for the product line itself.
