UNSPSC 50625805: Non GMO golden gourmet shallot purees

The variety of Non GMO shallots known as Non GMO golden gourmet shallots. 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 50625805 Non GMO golden gourmet shallot purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no active solicitations for shallot purees or specialty purees of any kind. The eight most recent opportunities posted under or near this code classification span consumable foods, fresh produce, canned goods, and food service supplies for state agencies, county governments, school districts, and correctional facilities, but none target shallot purees, gourmet or otherwise. The code appears misaligned with actual state and local procurement volume in this product category.

The recent opportunities reflect institutional food service procurement across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for food and consumables at state supported living centers (El Paso, Lufkin) and state hospitals, with scopes covering proteins, frozen specialty foods, dairy, grains, condiments, and food service supplies—but no specialty purees. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes in June 2026 with a 5 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated or Oregon-resident bidders and a previous award at $13.75 per case. Ben Hill County Schools and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia each posted school nutrition food bids encompassing hundreds of line items across fresh proteins, frozen vegetables, dairy, and dry goods. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Comptroller of Public Accounts issued IFB 304T-26-300CF in May 2026 for approximately 382 cafeteria food line items serving multiple warehouse locations across five geographic areas. None of these solicitations—whether IFB, IWQ, or RFP—include specialty shallot purees, non-GMO ingredient certifications, or gourmet food components. The code likely sees minimal or no state and local activity; business development professionals should verify whether this UNSPSC classification is appropriate for market positioning or pursue adjacent codes covering prepared foods, vegetables, or specialty condiments where recent solicitation volume is evident.
