UNSPSC 50624014: Non GMO mint purees

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO mint. 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 50624014 Non GMO mint purees, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement with minimal recent activity—the provided opportunities block contains no mint-puree-specific solicitations. The code's nominal scope encompasses specialty herb and botanical products for institutional food service, but recent state and local contracting activity under this code does not materialize in the sample. School districts, state departments, and institutional nutrition programs soliciting food products in the June 2026 to January 2026 window pursued canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, dairy, proteins, and broad grocery categories; mint purees as a line item do not appear in any of the representative RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices reviewed.

The mismatch between code assignment and actual procurement activity suggests either sparse adoption of this commodity classification by state and local agencies or misalignment between the code and goods actually being tagged. Geographic concentration remains unclear given the absence of mint-puree opportunities. Practitioners evaluating this code should verify whether recent activity clusters under different UNSPSC codes for beverage bases, food flavoring agents, or broader produce categories, and confirm whether state and local nutrition programs genuinely source non-GMO mint purees as line items in their food-service tenders, as current visibility is limited to standard fresh, frozen, canned, and prepared food solicitations from Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, and Missouri school districts and state agencies.
