UNSPSC 50623704: Non GMO germidor garlic purees

The variety of Non GMO garlic known as Non GMO germidor garlic. 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 50623704 Non GMO germidor garlic purees (Commodity) represents a narrow ingredient category that appears rarely in state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show little alignment with garlic purees specifically; instead, they reflect broad food service and school nutrition solicitations where garlic products may be one of hundreds of line items, if present at all. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily purchasing consumable foods and supplies for institutional food service operations—state supported living centers, state hospitals, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. The issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois state agencies), school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners).

Recent solicitation activity appears concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for food and consumables supporting state supported living centers and hospitals—HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026, IFB), HHS0017872 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center fiscal year 2027, due August 25, 2026, IFB), and HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center, due July 13, 2026, IFB, with historical spend around $1.5 million annually). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). School districts in Georgia—Ben Hill County Schools (IFB #26271, due June 15, 2026) and Burke County Public Schools (due June 5, 2026)—sought comprehensive food bids spanning nearly 400 line items across multiple categories with firm fixed pricing and regular price adjustments. The Oregon Department of Corrections bid for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026). Most institutional food service procurements require FOB Destination delivery, compliance with USDA standards, references, liability insurance, E-Verify verification, and detailed product specifications including nutritional data and shelf life. The code shows minimal recent activity specific to garlic purees; vendor interest should focus on institutional food service channels where ingredient-level bidding occurs as part of larger food supply contracts.
