UNSPSC 50623700: Non GMO garlic purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO garlics. 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 50623700 Non GMO garlic purees is a Class code that state and local governments rarely procure directly. The recent-opportunities block contains no bids, RFPs, RFQs, or ITBs for non-GMO garlic purees or any garlic product whatsoever. The code appears to have been assigned to one or more recent opportunities in error — the opportunities posted under this code actually solicit broad food supply and grocery procurement for school districts, state corrections facilities, state health and human services agencies, and state veterans homes, with products spanning proteins, dairy, frozen goods, produce, canned vegetables, condiments, and consumables. Garlic purees or garlic-specific items do not appear in any of the representative solicitations reviewed.

The recent-opportunities data support no decision-relevant activity under this code. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Muscogee County School District, and Douglas County School System), with secondary activity from state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home), and state procurement offices (Georgia, Texas Comptroller on behalf of TDCJ). Geographic concentration spans Georgia, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, Virginia, and Missouri. Representative opportunities include Texas HHSC's IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumables at the El Paso State Supported Living Center, and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (posted April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 across 45 schools. None of these solicitations reference non-GMO garlic purees as a line item or category. The code classification does not match the actual procurement activity being conducted.
