UNSPSC 50626727: Non GMO how sweet it is corn purees

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO how sweet it is 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 50626727 Non GMO how sweet it is corn purees (Commodity) encompasses prepared and shelf-stable food products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations, particularly state health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The code appears in a mix of institutional purchasing contexts — state departments of health and human services, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and state correctional and supported-living facilities — all of which source consumable foods through competitive bids and informal written quotes. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers procuring not just corn purees alone but broader consumable food portfolios including proteins, dairy, frozen items, condiments, and food service supplies delivered on tight timelines to cafeterias, canteens, and campus food service operations across multiple facilities.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumables and food products at state supported living centers in Lufkin and El Paso, with response dates in August and June 2026 and estimated annual spend of $1.5 million at the El Paso facility alone; Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia issued an IFB due June 15, 2026, for comprehensive school nutrition food procurement across four school locations, while Burke County Public Schools in Waynesboro, Georgia, solicited nearly 400 food line items due June 5, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections bid on 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes in June 2026, and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia requested informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026. Institutional food service procurement under this code is active and recurring, with school districts and state health agencies driving most visible demand; pricing is typically firm and fixed for initial terms with permitted adjustments tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index benchmarks, and delivery requirements are stringent — most solicitations mandate delivery within seven days of order or within 72 hours for emergency stock.
