UNSPSC 50621820: Non GMO flageolet bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO flageolet 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 50621820 Non GMO flageolet bean purees is a Commodity code that in theory covers specialty legume products for institutional food service, but recent state and local procurement activity shows minimal direct demand for flageolet beans specifically. Instead, state and local governments procuring under this code are buying broad-based food service supplies and consumables for correctional facilities, state-supported living centers, schools, and other institutional operations. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically requesting flageolet beans or non-GMO bean purees. The issuing bodies soliciting food and consumables include state health and human services commissions (Texas), state departments of corrections (Oregon), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), state departments (Illinois), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. These jurisdictions are sourcing hundreds of line items per procurement—proteins, frozen vegetables, dairy, grains, condiments, canned goods, and food service supplies—but none of the posted opportunities name flageolet beans as a line item or express demand for specialty non-GMO legume products.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs in May, June, and August 2026 for supplemental food and consumables (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, covering 210 line items with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years), food and consumables for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), and consumables for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division issued IFB 304T-26-300CF (due May 4, 2026) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products. Gwinnett County, Georgia, requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026), and Burke County Public Schools issued a comprehensive school nutrition food bid covering nearly 400 line items (due June 5, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections requested bids for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026). The code shows no recent activity directly aligned with non-GMO flageolet bean purees; vendors seeking opportunities in institutional food service should track broader commodity codes covering general legumes, canned goods, or prepared foods rather than rely on this narrow specialty code.
