UNSPSC 50624504: Non GMO lolla rossa lettuce purees

The variety of Non GMO lettuce known as Non GMO lolla rossa lettuce. 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 50624504 Non GMO lolla rossa lettuce purees (Commodity) shows limited recent state and local procurement activity. The one posting that references this code—Illinois Veterans Home's FY-27 quarterly food order (Solicitation 27497DVAQUINCB52821, RFQ due June 26, 2026)—does not include lettuce purees in its scope. State and local procurement under this code does not appear to generate regular or meaningful solicitation volume in the dataset reviewed.

The broader produce and food procurement landscape that surrounds this code shows heavy activity among school districts, state health and human services agencies, and corrections departments across multiple states. School nutrition programs in Georgia (Savannah-Chatham County, Burke County, Ben Hill County, Liberty County, Muscogee County), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), and Virginia (Fairfax County) have posted produce and grocery bids through spring 2026. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Oregon Department of Corrections have released substantial food procurement solicitations. Georgia and Illinois state agencies have posted produce and food orders. If your firm supplies non-GMO lettuce purees as an input to institutional food service, the relevant decision is whether to build relationships with primary food distributors and system integrators who win these broader food supply contracts—not to pursue this Commodity code directly, as it represents a specialized ingredient rather than a standalone procurement category in current state and local practice.
