UNSPSC 50626205: Non GMO georgia red sweet potato purees

The variety of Non GMO sweet potatoes known as Non GMO georgia red 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 50626205 Non GMO Georgia red sweet potato purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not reflect procurement activity for the product named in the code. The available records show institutional food service solicitations across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon — canteen and dining facility consumables, school nutrition programs, correctional facility cafeteria products, and state supported living center supplies — but none specifically target sweet potato purees, GMO status, or Georgia origin. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for broadly scoped food and consumable products for state supported living centers and hospitals (HHS0018082 for Lufkin, HHS0017449 for El Paso, HHS0016792V2 statewide), and Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia and Burke County Public Schools in Georgia have posted school nutrition food bids covering hundreds of line items with emphasis on fresh produce, proteins, and prepared items — but none of the posted solicitations name sweet potato purees as a line item or specify non-GMO certification requirements. Oregon's Department of Corrections posted a canned tomato bid and an unspecified potato variety bid (S2910000017145 and S2910000017460), and Gwinnett County posted a shelf-stable food items quote (IWQ 140229 for October 19, 2026), but these do not target the specific commodity.

The code shows no recent decision-relevant activity aligned with non-GMO sweet potato purees. State and local procurement offices soliciting under this UNSPSC number are currently buying broad-category institutional food service supplies rather than a narrow specialty product line. Vendors pursuing the code should monitor school districts and state health and human services facilities in Georgia for nutrition program renewals, but existing records provide no signal that sweet potato purees — whether GMO-restricted or origin-designated — represent a material procurement category in the current market. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying patterns suggests the code may be incorrectly applied to these opportunities, or the taxonomy itself is not in active use for commodity-level work in this space.
