UNSPSC 50626201: Non GMO beauregard sweet potato purees

The variety of Non GMO sweet potatoes known as Non GMO beauregard sweet potatoes. 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 50626201 Non GMO Beauregard sweet potato purees, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line within state and local food service procurement. State and local governments buy this code almost exclusively as part of broader consumables and food-supply contracts for institutional food service — notably state health and human services agencies managing state supported living centers, state hospitals, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs. The code appears rarely as a standalone procurement and instead sits within larger line-item food bids that encompass dozens or hundreds of items spanning proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, condiments, and food service supplies. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services commissions, state corrections departments, school districts, and county social services departments. Recent opportunities show that these agencies source food items through IFB and IWQ notices with response windows typically spanning 7 to 30 days.

Geographic activity centers on Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for food and consumable products serving state supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso, with the El Paso procurement indicating prior-period historical value of $1.5 million and a potential three-year value of up to $4.5 million. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia issued an IWQ for shelf-stable food items in October 2026 due October 19, requesting approximately 1,062 cases across 35 line items with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia have each solicited comprehensive grocery procurements for school nutrition programs across multiple school sites. Oregon Department of Corrections posted an IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes in June 2026. Activity is most recent in Texas and Georgia; the code shows no distinct concentration among repeat buyers, though state supported living centers and school nutrition programs are the dominant use cases. Bidders should monitor Texas HHS and Georgia school district RFP calendars and watch for large-volume food-service consolidations that may offer scale opportunities under this Commodity code within broader line-item awards.
