UNSPSC 50625419: Non GMO chiltecpin pepper purees

The variety of Non GMO peppers known as Non GMO chiltecpin 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 50625419 Non GMO chiltecpin pepper purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity recently tagged under it. The source identifies no recent opportunities specifically soliciting chiltecpin pepper purees or any pepper purees. The most recent opportunity explicitly tagged to this code—Illinois Veterans Home's FY-27 quarterly food order (posting date June 18, 2026)—comprises generic weekly food supply fulfillment across 24 diverse line items (proteins, dairy, prepared foods, vegetables, condiments) with no reference to specialty pepper products. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its nominal scope.

The broader food procurement ecosystem in which this code sits is highly active across state and local jurisdictions. State agencies, county school districts, and special-purpose food service authorities—including the Illinois Veterans Home, Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), Oregon Department of Corrections, and multiple school nutrition programs—solicit food and consumable products under related codes at high velocity. Representative opportunities include HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center's IFB for food and consumable products (due July 13, 2026, covering NIGP classes 380, 385, 390, 393 with a prior contract value of $1.5 million), Texas TDCJ's cafeteria food products IFB across five geographic areas (due May 4, 2026, 382 line items), Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (due April 27, 2026, serving 45 schools plus distribution kitchens), and school district produce and food supply RFPs across Georgia, Missouri, and Oregon. Geographic concentration includes Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs and corrections facilities as dominant repeat buyers. The mismatch between the code name and the generalist food procurement solicitations suggests either miscoding or that chiltecpin pepper purees represent a negligible slice of state and local procurement spend, warranting careful verification before pursuing activity under this specific code.
