UNSPSC 50625809: Non GMO red potato onion purees

The variety of Non GMO shallots known as Non GMO red potato onions. 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 50625809 Non GMO red potato onion purees is a Commodity code that covers specialty produce purees for institutional food service, though recent state and local procurement activity shows the code is receiving minimal relevant solicitation volume. The source records ten recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code, but none of the summaries explicitly reference non-GMO red potato onion purees or specialty purees matching the code's nominal scope. Instead, the opportunities span general consumable foods for state-supported living centers, school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and county senior services, encompassing broad categories of proteins, canned goods, fresh produce, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies. The issuing bodies are primarily state health and human services departments (Texas, Georgia, Illinois), county boards of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia; Ben Hill County, Georgia; Burke County, Georgia), state corrections agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and independent school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools). One Oregon solicitation references "Potatoes, Variety" due July 27, 2026, but the source does not provide the specification document or agency name, and cannot confirm whether the scope includes specialty purees or non-GMO certification.

Geographic activity centers on Texas (multiple Health and Human Services Commission solicitations for state-supported living centers and correctional food service), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Ben Hill County, Burke County, and statewide procurement), and Oregon (Department of Corrections and unspecified agency potato purchase). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), the Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food items (due October 19, 2026), and the Ben Hill County Schools IFB for school nutrition food products (due June 15, 2026). None of these opportunities explicitly identify non-GMO red potato onion purees as a line item or procurement focus. The code appears to show no current decision-relevant activity for vendors specializing in this product category; business development professionals should verify with issuing bodies whether specialty purees are hidden within broader food service categories or seek alternative UNSPSC commodity codes for processed produce products.
