UNSPSC 50622501: Non GMO amsterdam carrot purees

The variety of Non GMO carrots known as Non GMO amsterdam carrots. 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 50622501 Non GMO amsterdam carrot purees is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with this specific product line. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting non-GMO Amsterdam carrot purees or comparable carrot puree products; instead, the most recent opportunities under this code span broad food procurement by school districts, corrections departments, health and human services agencies, and state facilities requesting comprehensive grocery and food supply contracts that may include carrot products as line items within much larger mixed portfolios. The actual work being solicited includes weekly food orders for veterans' homes, quarterly produce and consumables for state-supported living centers, fresh produce and grocery items for school nutrition programs across multiple districts and states, and cafeteria supplies for corrections facilities—all of which may incorporate carrot products but do not isolate them as a primary focus or specify non-GMO sourcing requirements.

State and local issuing bodies pursuing food procurement under this code include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy, and the Georgia Department of Education), and county-level systems. The geographic footprint includes Georgia (the dominant jurisdiction with eight separate school district procurements), Texas (state agency procurements), Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Rockwood R-VI School District Child Nutrition Services grocery procurement (IFB CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, due April 29, 2026) encompassing over 900 food line items with firm pricing for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027; the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia (PE64810NONST2026000000047, due March 4, 2026) with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million to $1.1 million depending on geographic area; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for supplemental food and consumable products statewide (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) with a historical value of $1.5 million and a maximum three-year potential of $4.5 million. The code itself does not isolate specialty or branded ingredient sourcing, and no recent solicitations explicitly call out non-GMO carrot puree as a line item, suggesting the code may be a default classification rather than an active market signal for this specific product.
