UNSPSC 50623300: Non GMO cucumber purees

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO cucumbers. 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 50623300 Non GMO cucumber purees is a Class code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are acquiring diverse food products for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, state facilities, and correctional institutions — rather than cucumber purees specifically. The recent opportunities block shows no active solicitations for non-GMO cucumber purees; instead, the tagged opportunities cover canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, tomato paste, and comprehensive weekly or annual food supply contracts. The code's nominal scope does not align with the actual procurement activity appearing under it, indicating either a misclassification of individual opportunities or limited recent activity for the specific commodity named.

The issuing bodies are primarily school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home), and related state-level food procurement. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (response due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (response due April 27, 2026). The mismatch between the code name and actual solicitations suggests this code sees limited relevant activity at present.
