UNSPSC 50624902: Non GMO garden huckleberry purees

The variety of Non GMO nightshades known as Non GMO garden huckleberry. 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 50624902 Non GMO garden huckleberry purees, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement records with minimal recent activity aligned to its specific product scope. The code nominally covers a narrow, specialized fruit product — non-GMO huckleberry purees — yet the recent solicitations tagged under it procure broad-based consumable and food-service supplies for state institutions, school districts, and corrections facilities. The actual work being bought under this code spans shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy products, fresh produce, condiments, and disposable food-service supplies (containers, napkins, hairnets, straws) rather than huckleberry purees or similar specialty fruit products. Issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions (Texas), state corrections departments (Oregon, Texas), county school districts (Georgia), and county service boards (Georgia). The geographic distribution of recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, and Oregon, with Texas Health and Human Services Commission appearing as a repeat buyer across multiple fiscal-year food and consumables IFBs.

Recent representative solicitations show the mismatch between code designation and actual procurement scope. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026, for consumable foods at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026, encompassing 22 line items of prepared foods and food-service supplies with delivery required within seven days of order. The Oregon Department of Corrections Purchasing Division posted an IFB on June 5, 2026, for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes due June 19, 2026, with delivery to Salem and a prior purchase benchmark of $13.75 per case. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia posted IFB #26271 on May 19, 2026, for a comprehensive school nutrition program food bid across four schools due June 15, 2026, including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and kitchen supplies with Buy American Act compliance required. The code shows little activity aligned to its nominal product definition; business development professionals should verify whether huckleberry purees or similar specialty fruit products appear in future state and local solicitations before investing in capability development under this Commodity code.
