UNSPSC 50621852: Non GMO yard long bean purees

The variety of Non GMO beans known as Non GMO yard long 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 50621852 Non GMO yard long bean purees, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source records show no solicitations for yard long bean purees or any similar specialty legume products; instead, the opportunities tagged to this code reflect broad food service procurement across institutional buyers—school districts, state agencies, and corrections departments—purchasing generic grocery items including proteins, produce, dairy, grains, condiments, and prepared foods in bulk quantities.

State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and others), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and special districts serving state-supported living centers. The procurement types are IFBs, RFPs, and RFQs with firm fixed pricing, weekly or monthly deliveries, and contract periods typically running July 1 through June 30 annually with renewal options. Geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia (multiple school districts), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ), Oregon (ODOC), and Illinois, with recent activity across Missouri, Virginia, and other states. 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 (response due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (response due April 6, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (response due April 27, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-003 for food supply and distribution services (response due February 18, 2026). The code shows robust activity in institutional bulk food procurement but no evidence of demand for the non-GMO yard long bean purees the code nominally describes.
