UNSPSC 50624021: Non GMO sage purees

The variety of Non GMO herbs known as Non GMO sage. 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 50624021 Non GMO sage purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code do not reflect procurement of non-GMO sage purees specifically. Instead, the code is being applied to broad food service provisioning for state institutions, school districts, and correctional facilities—work that encompasses dozens or hundreds of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, bakery items, condiments, frozen entrees, and food service supplies. The actual buying activity centers on comprehensive grocery procurement to stock cafeterias, food service operations, and canteen facilities across multiple locations within a single jurisdiction, with quantities measured in cases or truckloads and delivery windows measured in days to weeks. Issuing bodies include Texas state agencies (Health and Human Services Commission for state supported living centers, Department of Criminal Justice for correctional facilities), Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), Oregon state agencies (Department of Corrections), and Illinois state procurement. The work is predominantly institutional food service supply contracting—routine, recurring, commodity-level purchasing rather than specialty ingredient procurement.

Recent opportunities span Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026, due October 23, 2026, for consumable foods and food service supplies for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, encompassing 22 line items with delivery within seven days of order. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued IWQ 140229 (informal written quote) on October 13, 2026, due October 19, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, and sauces for senior services. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted IFB S2910000017145 on June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026, for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes meeting USDA Grade B or better, with an Oregon-fabricated goods preference of 5 percent, to be delivered to Salem. Ben Hill County Schools posted IFB #26271 on May 19, 2026, due June 15, 2026, for comprehensive food procurement across four school locations with Buy American Act requirements, encompassing fresh and frozen produce, meat, dairy, and kitchen supplies. No specific procurement under the non-GMO sage purees commodity has been identified in recent activity.
