UNSPSC 50623408: Non GMO indian eggplant purees

The variety of Non GMO eggplants known as Non GMO indian 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 50623408 Non GMO Indian eggplant purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work state and local governments actually buy under this classification. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span broad food procurement for institutional dining—weekly fresh-food orders for state veterans homes, quarterly grocery supplies for state-supported living centers, canned tomato products and tomato paste for correctional facilities, and annual food service contracts for school districts—none of which involve eggplant purees, non-GMO or otherwise. The code's nominal scope conflicts plainly with the procurement activity it has drawn, suggesting either miscoding by issuing bodies or a taxonomy mismatch between the vendor's product line and the state and local purchasing system.

State and local activity under this code is geographically dispersed across Illinois (Illinois Veterans Home Quincy), Texas (Health and Human Services Commission), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Georgia (school districts including Savannah-Chatham, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Douglas County, and Ben Hill County), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), with issuers spanning state departments and agencies, county and independent school districts, and regional cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; the Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 (due February 18, 2026) for food supply and distribution services supporting approximately 32,000 meals daily with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000; and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 serving 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens with weekly deliveries. Given the systematic mismatch between code taxonomy and actual procurement scope, this code presents limited decision-relevant signals for vendors with eggplant-puree product lines seeking state and local contracts.
