UNSPSC 50625413: Non GMO anaheim pepper purees

The variety of Non GMO peppers known as Non GMO anaheim peppers. 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 50625413 Non GMO anaheim pepper purees (Commodity) describes a narrow product category that state and local governments rarely procure as a standalone item. Recent activity shows no dedicated solicitations for Anaheim pepper purees; instead, the code appears in the broader context of food service purchasing where pepper purees may be one line item among hundreds in larger produce, condiment, or food ingredient procurements. The opportunities tagged with this code actually reflect institutional food service demand—school nutrition programs, state facility food service operations, and corrections departments sourcing mixed grocery inventories that occasionally include specialty pepper products. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Burke County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home), and multi-district cooperative buying vehicles. Work being solicited under the code involves competitive bidding on fixed or Net Off Invoice (NOI) pricing for food items delivered weekly to school cafeterias, central distribution warehouses, or state facility food service operations, with firm pricing, USDA compliance, and delivery schedules central to award decisions.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia (multiple school district food bids from Ben Hill, Burke County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County cooperatives), Texas (HHSC and TDCJ food procurement statewide), Oregon (Department of Corrections canned and fresh produce buys), Illinois (Veterans Home quarterly food orders), and Missouri (Rockwood School District dual grocery procurements). Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission supplemental food and consumable procurement (HHS0017449, IFB, due July 11, 2026, covering 210 line items for state supported living centers with historical value of $1.5 million), Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026, requiring minimum 76 line items across 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens), and the Oregon Department of Corrections canned tomato procurement (S2910000017145, ITB, due June 19, 2026, for approximately 7,616 cases). Pepper purees as a specific commodity show minimal standalone activity; vendors pursuing this code should expect to bid pepper products as part of large mixed-food RFPs where line-item specialization, pricing accuracy, and delivery reliability determine competitiveness rather than product uniqueness.
