UNSPSC 50624402: Non GMO french green lentil purees

The variety of Non GMO lentils known as Non GMO french green lentils. 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 50624402 Non GMO french green lentil purees is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure shelf-stable legume products for food service operations across institutional settings — primarily state health and human services facilities, school districts, and corrections departments. Recent solicitations show that purees and related processed legume products are acquired as components of broader food-service supply contracts rather than as standalone line items; they appear bundled with fresh proteins, frozen vegetables, dairy, condiments, and consumable supplies for cafeteria and canteen operations. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, county schools, county social services departments, state corrections agencies, and municipal/county food service authorities. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple recent food and consumables RFPs and IFBs, as has the State of Georgia and Oregon Department of Corrections, signaling repeat procurement activity among state institutional food service buyers.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited supplemental food and consumables (IFB HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026, maximum potential value $4.5 million over three years) and consumables and noncontract items for Lufkin State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0018082, due October 23, 2026). Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and sauces (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections posted an IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with prior purchase at $13.75 per case from California Healthy Harvest). Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia each posted comprehensive school nutrition food bids encompassing hundreds of line items across multiple categories. The code shows no recent standalone procurement of non-GMO french green lentil purees; all recent opportunities frame legume-based products as part of diversified institutional food-service supply contracts rather than as a discrete commodity line.
