UNSPSC 50625711: Non GMO sea kale purees

The variety of Non GMO sea vegetables known as Non GMO sea kale. 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 50625711 Non GMO sea kale purees (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code predominantly solicit broad food service categories—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, grocery staples, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health and human services centers—rather than sea kale purees or kale-specific products. School districts, state departments of corrections, state health and human services commissions, and county school boards are the primary issuing bodies. The geographic spread encompasses Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia, with school nutrition programs representing the largest concentration of recent activity.

Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's HHS0017449 IFB for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due July 13, 2026), covering NIGP Classes 385, 390, 380, and 393 with a historical value of $1.5 million for the prior contract year; the Oregon Department of Corrections' S2910000016405 ITB for canned tomatoes (response due April 6, 2026), seeking approximately 7,616 cases with an Oregon-fabrication preference; and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (response due April 27, 2026), establishing supply to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens with firm fixed pricing for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code shows no evidence of recent procurement specifically targeting non-GMO sea kale purees or kale-family products as a stand-alone commodity line, suggesting either minimal state and local demand for this product or systematic tagging misalignment between the code and actual purchasing intent.
