UNSPSC 50622206: Non GMO redmate bunching onion purees

The variety of Non GMO bunching onions known as Non GMO redmate bunching onions. 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 50622206 Non GMO redmate bunching onion purees is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, is not actually being procured under this specific description. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show no purchases of non-GMO redmate bunching onion purees. Instead, the opportunities reflect broader food procurement for institutional food service — state health and human services agencies, county nutrition programs, school districts, and correctional facilities buying prepared foods, frozen proteins, canned vegetables, dairy, condiments, and consumable food service supplies in bulk quantities for cafeterias, canteens, and nutrition programs. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity focus and the actual scope of recent solicitations suggests the code may be incorrectly tagged in the source data or is not currently in active use for state and local purchasing.

State and local food procurement under this code family remains fragmented across issuing bodies including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia county school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the Oregon Department of Corrections, the Illinois Department of Human Services, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, with activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC's IFB for supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, maximum value $4.5 million over three years), the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026, prior award at $13.75 per case), Ben Hill County Schools' IFB for comprehensive school nutrition food (PE61000NONST2027000000006, due June 15, 2026, with Buy American Act compliance required), and Burke County Public Schools' sealed bid for nearly 400 line items across food categories (PE55037NONST2027000000007, due June 5, 2026). Given the absence of relevant recent activity under the stated commodity code, this code does not present a clear current pursuit opportunity for vendors focused on non-GMO redmate bunching onion purees specifically.
