UNSPSC 50621914: Non GMO egyptian flat beet purees

The variety of Non GMO beets known as Non GMO egyptian flat 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 50621914 Non GMO Egyptian flat beet purees is a Commodity code. The code shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity—none of the recent opportunities in the block involve non-GMO Egyptian flat beet purees or beet purees of any kind. The State of Illinois, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools, Texas HHSC (multiple solicitations), Georgia Department of Human Resources, Burke County Public Schools, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and other jurisdictions are soliciting for broad food supply categories—fresh produce, canned vegetables including tomatoes, fresh eggs, proteins, dairy, condiments, and prepared items—but none specifically target beet purees or root-vegetable purees. The recent opportunities span school districts seeking annual nutrition contracts, correctional facilities requiring commodity foods, and state-supported living centers purchasing food and consumable products. Geographic spread includes Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHSC's food and consumable products procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covering facilities statewide with a prior-period value of $1.5 million, and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) requiring supply to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens. These solicitations reflect demand for shelf-stable and refrigerated food staples, fresh produce, and proteins—not specialty vegetable purees.

The code's narrow specificity and the absence of any matching recent opportunities suggest limited current activity. Vendors in beet-puree production targeting state and local procurement should monitor broader food-supply and produce categories where beet products might appear as line items rather than expect dedicated solicitations under this commodity code. Activity remains concentrated in school nutrition programs and facility food service contracts where commodity ingredients compete on cost, shelf life, and specification compliance rather than specialty formulations.
