UNSPSC 50624720: Non GMO white trumpet mushroom purees

The variety of Non GMO mushrooms known as Non GMO white trumpet mushrooms. 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 50624720 Non GMO white trumpet mushroom purees is a Commodity code that describes specialty food products for institutional consumption. State and local governments procure under this code primarily to supply food service operations at state hospitals, state-supported living centers, school districts, and correctional facilities. The recent solicitation activity shows that while the code's nominal scope names a specific mushroom product, state and local issuing bodies are buying across a much broader range of shelf-stable and prepared food items—proteins, frozen specialty entrees, fresh and frozen produce, dairy, grains, condiments, and consumable supplies—under single comprehensive food and commodity contracts. The mix of issuing bodies includes state health and human services agencies (particularly in Texas), county and municipal education authorities, county government departments, state correctional systems, and special-purpose school nutrition programs. Texas Health and Human Services Commission emerges as a repeat buyer, soliciting food and consumable products for multiple state-supported living centers and state hospitals under successive IFBs.

Recent activity clusters in Texas and Georgia, with additional solicitations from Oregon and Illinois. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026, with prior-period spend of $1.5 million); Ben Hill County Schools IFB for school nutrition food products across four school locations (due June 15, 2026); Burke County Public Schools' sealed-bid food procurement for the 2026-2027 school year across five schools (due June 5, 2026); and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products to supply TDCJ warehouse locations across five geographic areas (due May 4, 2026). The Oregon Department of Corrections issued a competitive IFB for 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026, with previous purchase history of $13.75 per case). All issuing bodies emphasize USDA and FDA compliance, firm fixed pricing inclusive of delivery, compliance documentation including debarment certification and E-Verify requirements, and award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value.
