UNSPSC 50622708: Non GMO golden self-blanching celery purees

The variety of Non GMO celery known as Non GMO golden self-blanching celery. 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 50622708 Non GMO golden self-blanching celery purees, a Commodity code, sees sparse recent activity in state and local procurement, with minimal evidence of direct solicitation for this specific product line. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting non-GMO golden self-blanching celery purees; instead, state and local governments are bidding food products across much broader categories—fresh produce, frozen vegetables, canned goods, dairy, proteins, and prepared foods—to supply schools, correctional facilities, state hospitals, and support living centers. The code's narrow specification does not align with the generalized food procurement activity evident in the source opportunities, which solicit produce and vegetables as commodity groups rather than named cultivar varieties with specific processing attributes.

State and local food procurement activity concentrates among school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission). Geographic spread spans Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia, with school-based child nutrition and state facility food service as the dominant use cases. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (June 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumables at a state supported living center with prior period value of $1.5 million; Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (April 2026, due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools; and the Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery solicitations (March 2026, due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 food line items for child nutrition services. The code itself shows little current demand and does not appear to be an active procurement target for state and local buyers at this time.
