UNSPSC 50621813: Non GMO calypso bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO calypso 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 50621813 Non GMO calypso bean purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The single identified opportunity shows the code applied to a weekly food order from the State of Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy (solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, RFQ, due June 26, 2026), but that solicitation encompasses 24 diverse food line items across proteins, dairy, prepared foods, and condiments—not bean purees specifically. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests the code does not reflect active state and local demand for non-GMO calypso bean purees as a standalone category.

State and local food procurement activity across the recent opportunities block concentrates heavily in school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Rockwood School District, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System) and state institutional feeding (Texas HHSC state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home). Those procurements span fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods under broader commodity codes; bean purees do not surface as a line item or requirement in any representative solicitation. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, and Illinois. Without evidence of active procurement demand under this code, the category presents limited near-term opportunity for vendors specializing in non-GMO calypso bean purees at the state and local level.
