UNSPSC 50621809: Non GMO blackeyed bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO blackeyed 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 50621809 Non GMO blackeyed bean purees is a Commodity code that encompasses shelf-stable legume products procured by state and local government agencies for institutional food service, including state health and human services facilities, school nutrition programs, and correctional institutions. The recent opportunities show that state and local buyers are sourcing non-GMO and specialty legume products as part of broader food consumables procurement to supply cafeterias, canteens, and meal programs across multiple facility types; however, the code's specific commodity — non-GMO blackeyed bean purees — does not appear as a line item in the posted opportunities. Instead, recent solicitations name canned vegetables, shelf-stable proteins, dried goods, and prepared foods (French fries, chicken wings, sauces, tortillas, rice, pasta, and condiments) alongside broader food service supplies. The issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC), state departments of corrections (Oregon DOC), state comptroller procurement divisions (Texas), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and county government purchasing offices (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners).

The code shows recent procurement activity across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFB opportunities for consumable foods and supplemental food products at state supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso (IFB HHS0018082 due October 23, 2026; IFB HHS0017872 due August 25, 2026; IFB HHS0017449 due July 13, 2026; IFB HHS0016792V2 with a prior due date of March 19, 2026), with historical contract values reaching $1.5 million annually. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes via IFB S2910000017145 (due June 19, 2026), and the Texas Comptroller issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (due May 4, 2026). Georgia school districts, including Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (due June 5, 2026), solicited comprehensive food bids covering hundreds of line items. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for food items (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). The code shows no recent opportunities explicitly naming non-GMO blackeyed bean purees; legume purees may be bundled within broader shelf-stable food product categories or procured under different commodity codes.
