UNSPSC 50623803: Non GMO bottle gourd purees

The variety of Non GMO gourds known as Non GMO bottle gourd. 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 50623803 Non GMO bottle gourd purees (Commodity) represents a narrow specialty food product with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code shows no recent opportunities solicited specifically for bottle gourd purees; the single posted opportunity tagged to this code was an Illinois Veterans Home weekly food order solicitation (RFQ 27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026) that covers broad food supply categories rather than bottle gourd purees as a primary requirement. State and local procurement under this code does not reflect active, recurring demand for the product itself.

The geographic and issuing-body data from recent opportunities do not support meaningful market characterization for bottle gourd purees specifically. Across the broader fresh and processed produce solicitations in the dataset—issued by school districts in Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia; Texas health and human services agencies; and Oregon corrections—vendors compete primarily on canned tomatoes, fresh produce, specialty entrees, and commodity grocery items. No vendor activity or historical pricing for bottle gourd purees appears in the recent record, and the code's nominal scope diverges from the wide range of mainstream food products state and local procurement offices actually buy. If pursuit depends on recurring or substantial state and local demand for non-GMO bottle gourd purees as a line item, the available evidence does not support it.
