UNSPSC 50624406: Non GMO split red lentil purees

The variety of Non GMO lentils known as Non GMO split red 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 50624406 Non GMO split red lentil purees, a Commodity code, appears rarely in state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged with this code do not support a coherent market characterization — the opportunities span weekly food orders for a veterans home, institutional food service for correctional facilities and state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs across multiple districts, and fresh-produce procurement, none of which specifically solicit non-GMO split red lentil purees as a line item. The code shows minimal relevant activity, and the mismatch between the commodity's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited suggests this code may be tagged inappropriately in state and local systems or that split red lentil purees are purchased as part of broader food commodity bundles rather than as standalone line items.

The geographic spread of tagged opportunities spans Illinois, Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Missouri, and Virginia, with school districts and state health and human services agencies dominating the issuing bodies. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000017145 for canned tomatoes (bids due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB 2000004323 covering 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (bids due April 27, 2026). Because the code shows no direct procurement of non-GMO split red lentil purees in these recent opportunities, assessment of current market pursuit under this code is not supported by the available data.
