UNSPSC 50623404: Non GMO chinese eggplant purees

The variety of Non GMO eggplants known as Non GMO chinese eggplants. 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 50623404 Non GMO chinese eggplant purees (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its specific scope. The code nominally targets specialized eggplant puree products, but the recent opportunities posted under this taxonomy are dominated by broad food service procurement—weekly food orders, school nutrition programs, cafeteria supplies, and state-facility food fulfillment—that encompass hundreds of line items across produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and consumables rather than single-ingredient purees. School districts and state health and human services agencies issue most solicitations under the code; state departments of corrections also appear as repeat buyers. A small number of opportunities name eggplant or related vegetable products tangentially, but the vast majority reflect general food distribution contracts where eggplant purees, if present at all, are one item among hundreds in a commodity list.

Recent activity spans multiple regions including Texas, Illinois, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's food and consumable products procurement (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) for state supported living centers with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections' procurement for canned tomatoes (ITB S2910000017145, due June 19, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) covering 45 schools and distribution kitchens. School nutrition programs dominate the issuing bodies, with Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System all posting separate produce and food supply RFPs and IFBs in recent months. The code's tight commodity specification—non-GMO eggplant purees specifically—does not match the broad multi-item food distribution work currently being solicited. Business development professionals targeting this code should verify that responses are evaluated on individual line-item eligibility rather than assume the code reflects a primary or meaningful category within each contract's scope.
