UNSPSC 50624407: Non GMO split yellow lentil purees

The variety of Non GMO lentils known as Non GMO split yellow 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 50624407 Non GMO split yellow lentil purees is a Commodity code that captures nutritional food products for state and local institutional food service operations, though recent solicitations show the code sees limited direct activity under its specific product name. State and local governments soliciting under related food-commodity codes are primarily institutional buyers—state health and human services agencies operating supported living centers and hospitals, county and municipal school districts, correctional departments, and county social services departments. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) represent recent active issuers. The work being solicited spans shelf-stable and refrigerated food products for institutional canteens, cafeterias, and food service operations, with contracts covering dozens to hundreds of line items across protein, produce, dairy, dry goods, and consumable supplies. Contracts typically run fiscal or academic years with renewal or extension options, delivery within 3 to 30 days of order, and firm fixed-unit pricing subject to escalation clauses tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index indices.

Recent solicitation activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026 (due October 23, 2026) for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, encompassing 22 line items of prepared foods and food service supplies with annual quantities from 1 to 24 cases per item and F.O.B. Destination delivery within seven days. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued informal written quotes IWQ 140229 on October 13, 2026 (due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center within 72 hours when possible. Additional recent activity includes Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center (June 2026, prior-period value $1.5 million), Oregon Department of Corrections bid for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (June 2026, previous purchase $13.75 per case), and Ben Hill County Schools food bid for the school nutrition program (May 2026). The code shows no recent opportunities explicitly named as non-GMO split yellow lentil purees; the posted solicitations focus on broader institutional food categories where lentil products would appear as line items if specified by the buying agency.
