UNSPSC 50622608: Non GMO orange bouquet cauliflower purees

The variety of Non GMO cauliflower known as Non GMO orange bouquet 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 50622608 Non GMO orange bouquet cauliflower purees is a Commodity code covering specialized vegetable purees and processed produce items that state and local governments procure for institutional food service. The code sees limited direct activity—recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect broader food service procurement covering fresh and processed produce, canned goods, dairy, proteins, and consumable supplies for state facilities, school nutrition programs, and correctional institutions. State and local food service buyers, including school districts, state departments of corrections, health and human services agencies, and state-supported living centers, solicit food products under this and related codes as part of routine nutrition and meal-service procurement. Representative recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procures supplemental food and consumable products for state hospitals and state-supported living centers statewide (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026); the Oregon Department of Corrections solicits canned tomato products (ITB S2910000016089, due February 9, 2026); Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia establishes a Master Grocery K-12 contract for food delivery to schools (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026); and the Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri bids grocery items and Net Off Invoice products for child nutrition services (due April 29, 2026).

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast and Midwest, with multiple school district procurement cycles in Georgia (Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Burke County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Texas (HHSC, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Ben Hill County Schools). Virginia, Oregon, and Illinois also show recent procurement. School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix, with state agencies (corrections, health and human services) as secondary but regular buyers. Contract values reported in recent opportunities range from estimated annual food service spending of approximately $1.5 million (Texas HHSC prior period) to $9 million (Douglas County School System food supply and distribution) and $4.4 million to $1.1 million per geographic area (GEC Buying Cooperative fresh produce and eggs through Douglas County School System). Most school district procurements demand firm fixed pricing for initial contract periods with annual price adjustments capped by Consumer Price Index or USDA market indices, Buy American compliance, and weekly or regular delivery schedules to multiple school sites.
