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, does not match the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The most recent opportunities tagged with 50624902 solicit conventional food products — canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, and broad grocery items for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state-supported living centers — rather than specialty purees or non-GMO formulations. A review of fourteen recent state and local solicitations shows no demand for garden huckleberry purees of any kind, GMO status or otherwise. The code's nominal scope does not align with current buying patterns in state and local government.

School districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services agencies, and county boards of education dominate recent activity under this code classification. Representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' canned tomato procurements (S2910000016405, approximately 7,616 cases due June 19, 2026, and S2910000015837, approximately 7,616 cases due February 9, 2026, both ITBs); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables solicitation (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026, IFB) serving state supported living centers across Texas with a historical value of $1.5 million; and multiple school district grocery and produce bids covering Illinois (State of Illinois IVHQ quarterly food orders), Texas (TDCJ cafeteria food products, 304T26300CF, due May 4, 2026, IFB, approximately $9 million over three years), Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, PE61000NONST2027000000006, due June 15, 2026, IFB; Liberty County Board of Education, PE68910NONST2026000000049, due April 29, 2026, IFB; Muscogee County School District, PE55220NONST2026000000029, due April 27, 2026, ITB; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, BID2634, due April 23, 2026; Douglas County School System, PE64810NONST2026000000047, RFP due March 4, 2026 and PE64810NONST2026000000046, RFP due February 18, 2026), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District, two grocery solicitations due April 29, 2026), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools, IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026).
