UNSPSC 50622602: Non GMO alverda cauliflower purees

The variety of Non GMO cauliflower known as Non GMO alverda cauliflowers. 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 50622602 Non GMO alverda cauliflower purees is a Commodity code, but recent state and local procurement activity does not include solicitations for this specific product. The opportunities posted under or adjacent to this code reflect much broader food-service procurement — state agencies, counties, school districts, and other institutions are soliciting packaged and fresh food products in bulk for institutional feeding operations, including proteins, frozen vegetables, canned goods, dairy, grains, condiments, and food-service supplies. The code as named does not align with the actual buying patterns in the recent opportunities block, which span general commodity foods and consumables rather than specialty or branded vegetable purees.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting food products include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (which has posted multiple IFBs for state supported living centers and state hospitals), Georgia and Georgia local school districts (Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the State of Illinois. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with scattered solicitations elsewhere. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (October 23, 2026 response date) for consumables at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food-service supplies; Burke County Public Schools' school nutrition food bid (sealed bids due June 5, 2026) encompassing nearly 400 line items across multiple food categories for five schools; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 19, 2026 response date) with a 5 percent Oregon-fabricated goods preference. No recent opportunity posted under this code specifically targets non-GMO cauliflower purees or branded specialty produce items.
