UNSPSC 50626321: Non GMO super beefsteak tomato purees

The variety of Non GMO tomates known as Non GMO super beefsteak tomatoes. 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 50626321 Non GMO super beefsteak tomato purees (Commodity) covers canned and processed tomato products supplied to state and local institutional food service operations—primarily state supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county senior services. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying prepared tomato products as line items within broader consumables and food service awards, often bundled with frozen entrees, proteins, dairy, and kitchen supplies rather than as standalone tomato-only contracts. The issuing bodies span state health and human services commissions, departments of corrections, county boards of education, county commissioners' offices, and individual school districts across multiple states. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and various Georgia school districts appear as repeat buyers in the recent opportunity set.

Activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary posting activity in Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), encompassing 210+ line items under NIGP classifications 385, 390, 380, and 393 with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections IFB S2910000017145 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026) at $13.75 per case from the prior purchase; and Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products across multiple categories (due June 15, 2026) with delivery to four school locations and Buy American Act compliance required. The code shows steady institutional food service demand but little standalone single-product procurement visibility—tomato purees appear as bundled line items rather than as dedicated solicitations.
