UNSPSC 50623002: Non GMO chinese flat-headed cabbage purees

The variety of Non GMO chinese cabbage known as Non GMO chinese flat-headed cabbage. 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 50623002 Non GMO chinese flat-headed cabbage purees, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it. The recent solicitations posted from May through October 2026 solicit broad institutional food procurement — shelf-stable pantry staples, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, kitchen supplies, and food service consumables for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, county senior services, school nutrition programs, and state health systems — but none of the opportunities reference cabbage purees, non-GMO sourcing, or any cabbage product at all. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity suggests either a classification error in the source data or minimal real procurement activity under this specific commodity line.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), Georgia (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections). Issuing bodies are predominantly state-supported living centers, correctional institutions, school districts, and county social services departments. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (response due October 19, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned-tomato procurement S2910000017145 (response due June 19, 2026). No opportunities in the source directly reference the cabbage-puree commodity; business development professionals should verify code assignment before allocating pursuit resources.
