UNSPSC 50621833: Non GMO kidney bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO kidney 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 50621833 Non GMO kidney bean purees is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable legume products for institutional food service operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy prepared and packaged food items for consumption at state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, senior services, and other public institutions. Recent opportunities show that kidney bean purees compete alongside hundreds of other canned, frozen, and dried food products in large consolidated food-service contracts rather than as standalone line items. The issuing bodies include state health and human services departments, state correctional agencies, school districts, and county government nutrition programs. Contracts typically require vendors to serve multiple facilities across geographic regions, meet USDA and FDA standards, provide firm fixed pricing for initial periods with adjustments tied to third-party market indices, and deliver within seven days of order receipt on an FOB Destination basis.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple solicitations for state-supported living centers and state hospitals, including IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026), IFB HHS0017872 (Lufkin fiscal year 2027 consumables and noncontract items, due August 25, 2026), and IFB HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumables with prior-period value of $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026). Georgia school districts—Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (sealed bid due June 5, 2026)—and Gwinnett County (IWQ 140229 for community services food items, due October 19, 2026) are active buyers. Oregon Department of Corrections issued an IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026). The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas (response deadline May 4, 2026). School nutrition and institutional food-service contracts typically range from hundreds of line items across multiple categories, with prior-period volumes suggesting annual values in the low millions; most do not isolate kidney bean purees as a separately evaluated commodity.
