UNSPSC 50626812: Non GMO beet top purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO beet tops. 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 50626812 Non GMO beet top purees, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement activity primarily through school district food service contracts and institutional food supply solicitations, though recent opportunities show minimal direct procurement of this specific product. School districts, state institutional facilities (state-supported living centers, corrections departments, veterans homes), and health and human services agencies solicit broadly under produce and food categories that nominally encompass this commodity, but the recent-opportunities block shows no direct solicitation for beet top purees specifically. Instead, state and local buyers are actively procuring canned tomatoes, fresh produce (apples, bananas, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, eggs), dairy products, proteins, frozen specialty foods, and consumable supplies. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System) and state agencies managing institutional food service (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state hospitals and supported living centers, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, State of Georgia, State of Illinois). School districts dominate the recent activity, typically issuing IFBs or RFPs for comprehensive annual grocery or food supply contracts covering the full academic year with fixed pricing and periodic renewal options.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, Muscogee County), Texas (HHSC, TDCJ), Oregon (ODOC), Illinois (State of Illinois, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri is nearby), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (posted June 11, 2026, due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a prior-period historical value of $1.5 million; the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000017145 (posted June 5, 2026, due June 19, 2026) for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes; and the Fairfax County Public Schools IFB 2000004323 (posted April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. The code shows little relevant recent activity — no posted opportunities directly name beet top purees or non-GMO beet products as line items, suggesting the commodity sits outside the mainstream flow of state and local institutional food procurement at present.
