UNSPSC 50622303: Non GMO skunk cabbage purees

The variety of Non GMO cabbages known as Non GMO skunk cabbage. 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 50622303 Non GMO skunk cabbage purees is a Commodity code covering specialty plant-based food products. Recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code show little connection to the nominal scope — instead, issuing bodies are procuring broad consumable food and kitchen supplies for institutional food service, including prepared foods, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy products, condiments, and food service supplies such as containers, napkins, and serving equipment. The code appears to reflect a data-entry or classification mismatch rather than actual procurement of skunk cabbage purees. Soliciting bodies include state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission purchasing for state supported living centers), county and municipal governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Oregon Department of Corrections), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools, Georgia), and state departments of corrections (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). The range of issuing bodies and the volume of recent activity suggest institutional food procurement is tagged broadly across multiple UNSPSC codes.

Activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, response due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 (approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items, response due October 19, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' comprehensive school nutrition food bid (due June 15, 2026). A Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF) spanning approximately 382 line items across protein, dairy, grains, and produce with response due May 4, 2026 shows typical scope and scale. These solicitations emphasize firm, fixed pricing; F.O.B. destination delivery within 7 to 30 days; multiple references and compliance certifications; and USDA grade standards or equivalent specifications.
