UNSPSC 50624903: Non GMO naranjilla purees

The variety of Non GMO nightshades known as Non GMO naranjilla. 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 50624903 Non GMO naranjilla purees is a Commodity code that describes specialty tropical fruit purees. Recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little relevant activity aligned with the nominal commodity; the opportunities recorded span a broad range of food service procurement that includes prepared foods, shelf-stable staples, fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, and kitchen supplies for institutional canteens, state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services agencies, state departments of corrections, school districts, and county boards in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. Work is solicited through IFB, RFQ, and IWQ notices, with response windows typically two to four weeks from posting.

Geographically, the most recent activity concentrates in Texas (multiple HHSC solicitations for state supported living centers and hospitals) and Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools), with additional activity from Oregon (Department of Corrections) and Illinois (state agency). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is a repeat buyer, posting multiple IFB notices for consumable foods and supplemental food products across fiscal 2027 procurement cycles. Representative recent opportunities include HHS0018082 (Texas HHSC, IFB for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026), PE77023NONST2027000000782 (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, IWQ for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items, due October 19, 2026), and HHS0017449 (Texas HHSC, IFB for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center with prior-period value of $1.5 million, due July 13, 2026). The code as currently assigned does not capture a meaningful specialty naranjilla puree market in state and local procurement—the solicitations reflect commodity food service purchasing rather than specialty tropical fruit products.
