UNSPSC 50626767: Non GMO terminator corn purees

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO terminator 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 50626767 Non GMO terminator corn purees, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual state and local procurement activity captured in recent solicitations. The code's nominal scope—specialized corn products with specific genetic traits—bears no relationship to the food-service and nutrition contracts recently tagged under this code, which instead cover broad grocery, produce, and food-supply procurement for schools, state institutions, and correctional facilities.

The recent opportunities show a persistent mismatch: state and local issuing bodies are soliciting general food products (canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, proteins, dairy, prepared foods, and kitchen supplies) for school nutrition programs, state health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, and veterans' homes. These solicitations span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Douglas County Schools and Liberty County Schools, Georgia; Burke County Public Schools, Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Muscogee County School District, Georgia), state agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Georgia Department of State Operations, Illinois Veterans Home), and a regional cooperative (GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 Georgia school districts). Procurement notice types include IFB, RFP, and RFQ, with response deadlines clustering from late February through June 2026. The geographic spread centers on Georgia (eight recent solicitations), Texas (three), Oregon (two), Missouri (two), Virginia (one), and Illinois (two). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (due June 19, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) covering weekly delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. The code shows little relevant recent activity and should not be relied upon for business development targeting state and local food-service procurement.
