UNSPSC 50626745: Non GMO pegasus corn purees

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO pegasus 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 50626745 Non GMO pegasus corn purees (Commodity) represents a narrow food ingredient category with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its specification. The code nominally describes a specialized corn product, but the recent opportunities block shows state and local governments are purchasing a broad range of food service and nutrition products — fresh produce, canned goods, proteins, dairy, condiments, prepared foods, and consumable supplies — rather than branded or specialty corn purees. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System) and state agencies serving institutional populations, including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state hospitals and supported living centers), Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. No recent solicitation in the block explicitly names non-GMO corn purees or a product matching this commodity's specification, indicating the code captures little active procurement demand in the state and local space right now.

Geographic spread across the recent opportunities spans Texas (three HHSC and TDCJ procurements), Georgia (five school district and state agency procurements), Oregon (two Department of Corrections solicitations), Illinois (two Illinois Veterans Home RFQs), Missouri (two Rockwood School District procurements), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products for the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period value of $1.5 million; Ben Hill County Schools posted IFB #26271 on May 19, 2026 (due June 15, 2026) for comprehensive school nutrition food products; and the Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000016405 on March 23, 2026 for canned tomatoes at approximately $13.75 per case (prior purchase). None of these representative opportunities specifically mention non-GMO corn purees, reinforcing that the code shows little relevant recent activity and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual state and local food procurement priorities warrants careful attention before pursuing this category.
