UNSPSC 50625300: Non GMO pea purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO peas. 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 50625300 Non GMO pea purees, a Class code, represents a narrow commodity within state and local government food procurement — though the recent opportunities on record show no solicitations specifically for pea purees. Instead, the code's recent activity consists of broad food-service bids from institutional buyers (state health and human services agencies, county governments, school districts, and state departments of corrections) that encompass dozens of line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, dry goods, and consumable supplies. The actual purchasing under this code tier appears to reflect general food-service provisioning rather than specialty or restricted-ingredient items; the solicitations detail mainstream commodity foods such as canned tomatoes, potatoes, frozen chicken, pasta, rice, and condiments alongside service supplies like containers and napkins, with Buy American Act compliance and USDA grade standards as baseline requirements.

The issuing-body mix spans state health and human services commissions (Texas), state corrections departments (Oregon, Texas), state agencies (Georgia, Illinois), county governments (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County, Georgia), and school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Georgia) across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods and food service supplies at the Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), Gwinnett County's informal written quote IWQ 140229 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (due October 19, 2026), and Ben Hill County Schools' IFB #26271 for comprehensive school nutrition supplies across four school locations (due June 15, 2026). Contract values where disclosed range from prior-period guidance figures of $1.5 million (Texas HHSC El Paso center) to $4.5 million over three years (Texas supplemental food statewide), with delivery typically required within 7 to 72 hours of order receipt on FOB Destination terms. No recent solicitations specifically name non-GMO pea purees as a line item or requirement.
