UNSPSC 50623003: Non GMO chinese flowering cabbage purees

The variety of Non GMO chinese cabbage known as Non GMO chinese flowering 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 50623003 Non GMO Chinese Flowering Cabbage Purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal activity aligned to its nominal scope in recent state and local procurement. The code appears in only one opportunity block that explicitly names the commodity — a Texas Health and Human Services Commission procurement for supplemental food and consumables to state hospitals and supported living centers (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), which encompasses broad food product categories under NIGP classifications without singling out purees or Chinese cabbage products. The remaining fifteen opportunities in the recent activity set cover canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, general grocery items, school nutrition contracts, and cafeteria food products across multiple states and issuing bodies — none of which reference purees or brassica specialty items. The code's nominal scope does not materially align with what state and local governments actually buy under current procurement activity.

School districts, state health agencies, corrections departments, and county school systems dominate recent food procurement across the dataset, with particularly active bidding in Georgia (Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Douglas County Schools, Burke County Schools), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ), Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home), and Oregon (Department of Corrections). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC supplemental food and consumables IFB covering 210 line items for state hospitals statewide with a maximum three-year value of $4.5 million, the Fairfax County Public Schools master grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) serving 45 elementary, middle, and high schools with weekly deliveries, and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomato solicitation (S2910000016405, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases. If your firm supplies food service ingredients outside this commodity's narrow definition, the broader state and local food procurement landscape shows sustained activity — particularly in school nutrition programs, which issue bids consistently across spring months and award contracts for July-through-June fiscal terms.
