UNSPSC 50626709: Non GMO butter and sugar corn purees

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO butter and sugar corn. 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 50626709 Non GMO butter and sugar corn purees, a Commodity code, encompasses processed vegetable purees and specialty grain products that state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service operations—school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state health and human services agencies. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing this commodity as part of broader food service contracts rather than as standalone line items; the code sits within a larger ecosystem of canned and processed produce acquisitions alongside tomato paste, canned tomatoes, fresh produce, and prepared entrees.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with solicitations from Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia). State corrections departments—Oregon Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice—and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission) also procure under related codes with frequency. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Oregon, and Virginia, with secondary activity across Illinois and other states. The code shows no recent standalone solicitations explicitly tagged to UNSPSC 50626709 in the provided opportunity block; instead, corn purees and similar specialty products would be embedded as line items within broader food service RFPs and IFBs. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's HHS0017449 (food and consumables for state supported living centers), issued June 2026 with bids due July 13, 2026, and the related HHS0016792 (supplemental food and consumables statewide, due March 19, 2026 with maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years) represent the scale and scope at which institutional buyers acquire processed vegetable and grain products. School nutrition programs typically consolidate such items into multi-hundred-line-item master grocery or food supply contracts with firm fixed pricing, quarterly or annual review cycles, and multi-year renewal options. Pricing is competitive, delivery windows are tight (weekly to twice-weekly), and compliance with Buy American Act requirements, USDA nutritional standards, and HACCP food safety protocols is mandatory.
