UNSPSC 50624100: Non GMO kale purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO kale. 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 50624100 Non GMO kale purees is a Class code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities flagged under this code overwhelmingly cover general food and consumable products for institutional nutrition programs—school districts, correctional facilities, and state health and human services agencies—rather than non-GMO kale purees specifically. State and local buyers under this code tier are primarily school nutrition programs (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and health and human services commissions (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Veterans Home). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, and Virginia, with scattered activity in Illinois.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes and similar preserved goods (responses due various dates in February and March 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering food product supply and delivery to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens (bids due April 27, 2026). The code shows no recent solicitations explicitly requesting non-GMO kale purees or kale products of any type; the procurement activity reflects demand for broad food categories including proteins, dairy, produce, grains, and prepared entrees meeting USDA compliance, Buy American requirements, nutritional standards, and food safety specifications. If pursuing this code, expect competition centered on general institutional food service distribution and multi-category grocery supply rather than specialty plant-based or organic produce lines.
