UNSPSC 50623706: Non GMO ramson garlic purees

The variety of Non GMO garlic known as Non GMO ramson 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 50623706 Non GMO ramson garlic purees, a Commodity code, sees limited recent procurement activity at the state and local level. State and local government purchasing under this code focuses on specialized food ingredients for institutional food service operations—specifically, non-GMO garlic purees for school nutrition programs, state facility kitchens, and correctional food service. The issuing bodies span school districts, state health and human services agencies, and state corrections departments, with the recent opportunity block showing activity concentrated among K–12 school nutrition programs, state supported living centers, and state-operated facilities rather than broad multi-jurisdictional purchasing patterns. The code appears to be tagged to broader food procurement solicitations where garlic purees may represent a small line item within larger vegetable, condiment, or prepared-ingredient buys rather than standalone specialty-ingredient procurements.

Recent opportunities show scattered geographic activity across Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, and Missouri. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, with the procurement encompassing NIGP classes 385, 390, 380, and 393 for food service and canteen operations; a prior HHSC supplemental food procurement (HHS0016792) issued in February 2026 with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years covered 210 line items including specialty items and ingredients for state hospitals and supported living centers. School districts in Georgia and Missouri (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, and Douglas County School System) have issued IFBs and RFPs for comprehensive food service procurement, typically specifying bulk quantities of fresh and processed ingredients with emphasis on USDA compliance and nutritional standards, though none highlight garlic purees as a prominent line item. The code shows no standout repeat buyers and limited evidence of regular, predictable procurement cycles; activity appears episodic and embedded within broader food-service buys rather than representing a distinct commodity market segment.
