UNSPSC 50625713: Non GMO seaweed purees

The variety of Non GMO sea vegetables known as Non GMO seaweeds. 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 50625713 Non GMO seaweed purees, a Commodity code, does not appear in the recent state and local procurement activity provided. The source contains fourteen recent opportunities spanning February 2026 through June 2026, all of which are for conventional food products — canned tomatoes, fresh produce, dairy, proteins, grains, and consumables — procured by school districts, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and state veterans' homes. No issuing body solicited non-GMO seaweed purees during this period.

The fourteen opportunities reveal that state and local food procurement activity centers on bulk supply of staple foods for institutional dining and school nutrition programs rather than specialty or alternative protein sources. The code's scope—non-GMO seaweed purees—sits outside the mainstream categories being purchased. Geographic representation in the source includes Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, Oregon, and Virginia, with school districts and state agencies dominating the buyer base. If non-GMO seaweed purees are commercially relevant to state and local food service, they would likely be tagged under broader commodity or prepared-foods codes rather than this specific Commodity designation, or procurement has not yet generated recent competitive solicitations under this code.
