UNSPSC 50625002: Non GMO burgundy okra purees

The variety of Non GMO okra known as Non GMO burgundy okra. 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 50625002 Non GMO burgundy okra purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single vegetable product variant, yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for non-GMO burgundy okra purees or close functional equivalents. Instead, state and local food-service procurements in the source universe overwhelmingly target broad-based grocery supply, fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, and prepared foods in high volume to school districts, correctional facilities, state health and human services agencies, and veterans' homes—spanning hundreds of line items per solicitation rather than single or specialty produce items. The mismatch between the code's narrow nominal scope and the actual buying activity suggests this code sees little relevant procurement momentum at present.

When specialized produce items do appear in state and local RFPs and RFQs, they are typically bundled as one line item among dozens or hundreds in comprehensive food-service contracts rather than procured as standalone commodities. Issuing bodies soliciting food products include school districts (Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Burke County Public Schools in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state correctional departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and state veteran facilities (Illinois Veterans Home). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs driving the largest share of volume. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for supplemental food and consumables (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) encompassing 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide with historical spend of $1.5 million, and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for master grocery K-12 (due April 27, 2026) requiring delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens across the district. The code shows no standalone demand signal in the available recent opportunities.
