UNSPSC 50622911: Non GMO wallone freisee weschelkopf chicory purees

The variety of Non GMO chicory known as Non GMO wallone freisee weschelkopf chicory. 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 50622911 Non GMO wallone freisee weschelkopf chicory purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure this highly specialized chicory puree product through the code, but recent activity shows the commodity name does not align with actual buying patterns. The nine most recent opportunities tagged to this code span consumable foods ranging from shelf-stable shelf products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, canned vegetables) to fresh and frozen proteins, dairy, produce, and food service supplies for institutional canteens, dining facilities, school nutrition programs, and state hospitals. Issuing bodies include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (three opportunities), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the State of Illinois, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. School districts and state health and human services agencies dominate the recent activity, supplemented by county governments and corrections departments.

Recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026 span five states with the heaviest concentration in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center) due October 23, 2026, for 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies on F.O.B. Destination terms. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued IWQ 140229 due October 19, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued a bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with a previous purchase price of $13.75 per case. Ben Hill County Schools requested comprehensive grocery procurement across multiple food categories due June 15, 2026. The code shows little activity aligned to its nominal scope; recent opportunities are predominantly general institutional food procurement rather than specialized chicory purees, suggesting either miscoding or minimal use of this commodity classification for its stated product.
