UNSPSC 50623405: Non GMO easter egg eggplant purees

The variety of Non GMO eggplants known as Non GMO easter egg 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 50623405 Non GMO easter egg eggplant purees is a Commodity code, but it shows little relevant recent activity. The most recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code do not solicit eggplant purees or specialty vegetable products; instead, they request shelf-stable and prepared foods (canned tomatoes, potatoes, cafeteria proteins, frozen vegetables, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies) for institutional consumption at state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school districts, and county senior services programs. The code's nominal scope — non-GMO specialty produce purees — does not align with the breadth and character of what state and local procurement offices are actually buying under this UNSPSC tag today.

Recent opportunities span Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the State of Georgia), Oregon (Oregon Department of Corrections), and Illinois (State of Illinois). Representative solicitations include IFB HHS0018082 from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), covering 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies; IWQ 140229 from Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including proteins, grains, and canned vegetables (response due October 19, 2026); and IFB 304T-26-300CF from the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic warehouse areas (response due May 4, 2026). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent procurement activity suggests that either the code was misapplied in tagging these opportunities or that the code itself sees minimal genuine activity for non-GMO eggplant purees in state and local markets.
