UNSPSC 50626110: Non GMO gold squash purees

The variety of Non GMO summer squashes and Non GMO summer pumpkins known as Non GMO gold squash. 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 50626110 Non GMO gold squash purees is a Commodity code that state and local governments procure as part of broader food service and nutrition supply contracts, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code is minimal. The opportunities in the source show school districts, state health agencies, state corrections departments, and state veterans homes sourcing food products through RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs that span dozens or hundreds of line items covering proteins, produce, dairy, canned goods, and prepared foods—with squash purees, if procured at all, typically embedded within these aggregate food supply contracts rather than solicited as a standalone item. No recent opportunities in the dataset explicitly name non-GMO gold squash purees as a line item.

State and local issuing bodies across this foodservice category include school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections), and veterans facilities (Illinois Veterans Home). Geographic spread spans Georgia (Ben Hill County, Burke County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), Texas (HHSC facilities statewide, TDCJ distribution points), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Illinois (Veterans Home Quincy), Missouri (Rockwood School District), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for school nutrition food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 supply to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026). The code itself shows no recent isolated solicitations and appears to sit within larger, multisource food procurement efforts where specific vegetable purees are negotiated as part of comprehensive supply agreements rather than standalone bids.
