UNSPSC 50621911: Non GMO d'egypte beet purees

The variety of Non GMO beets known as Non GMO d'egypte beets. 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 50621911 Non GMO d'egypte beet purees, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The fourteen recent state and local opportunities posted under this code span food procurement across institutional kitchens—school nutrition programs, state hospitals, corrections facilities, and veterans homes—but none of the summaries describe beet purees, d'egypte or otherwise. The opportunities name tomato products (canned and paste), fresh produce (mixed vegetables, eggs, citrus), proteins, dairy, bakery items, and comprehensive grocery supply contracts, but beet purees do not appear in any of the line-item listings, specifications, or product categories described. The code appears to be a misclassification in the source data rather than an active procurement category.

State and local buyers issuing under this code include school districts (Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Burke County and Liberty County in Georgia, Fairfax County in Virginia, Savannah-Chatham in Georgia, and Douglas County in Georgia), state departments (Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Department of Corrections facilities), and county school nutrition programs (Ben Hill County, Muscogee County, Liberty County). Geographic activity centers on Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Oregon, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned-tomato solicitation (ITB S2910000016405, due June 19, 2026, approximately 7,616 cases at $13.75 per case historical pricing), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, serving state-supported living centers statewide with a prior annual value of $1.5 million), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, covering 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution facilities). Given the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual opportunities posted, firms should verify code accuracy with the issuing jurisdiction before resource investment.
