UNSPSC 50622001: Non GMO broccolini purees

The variety of Non GMO broccoli known as Non GMO broccolini. 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 50622001 Non GMO broccolini purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity does not reflect direct purchasing of this specific product. Instead, activity under related food supply codes shows state and local governments procuring broad categories of consumable food products — fresh produce, frozen items, canned goods, proteins, dairy, and food service supplies — for institutional feeding programs at state facilities, county and school nutrition programs, and correctional institutions. The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments, county boards of commissioners, independent school districts, departments of corrections, and state comptroller offices. Work being solicited includes provision of hundreds of line items across multiple food categories with firm fixed pricing, delivery within specified timeframes (typically 30 to 72 hours), compliance with USDA and FDA standards, and F.O.B. Destination terms with freight prepaid. Representative solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (due October 19, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for comprehensive school nutrition products across four schools (due June 15, 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products to supply multiple warehouse locations (due May 4, 2026).

Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services has posted multiple solicitations for state-supported living centers and state hospitals, with the supplemental food contract (HHS0016792V2) reaching a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years and the El Paso facility procurement (HHS0017449) noting prior-period spending of $1.5 million. Georgia school districts—Ben Hill County and Burke County—are both in active procurement for annual nutrition programs, as is the State of Georgia's general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026). Oregon Department of Corrections solicited approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026), with the previous purchase priced at $13.75 per case. Illinois posted a quarterly food order (27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026). The code shows robust activity but reflects general institutional food procurement rather than specialty or single-produce-category sourcing; vendors pursuing opportunities should expect competitive bidding on broadly specified commodity food items with emphasis on volume, delivery performance, regulatory compliance, and price.
