UNSPSC 50626825: Non GMO donqua purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO donqua. 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 50626825 Non GMO donqua purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under this tag in recent state and local procurement. Recent opportunities posted against this code cover broad food service procurement—weekly food orders, cafeteria staples, fresh produce, canned goods, and consumable supplies for schools, correctional facilities, veterans homes, state hospitals, and supported living centers—but none explicitly reference donqua purees or products matching the code's nominal scope. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health and human services, school districts ranging from small rural systems to large metropolitan districts, and state veterans homes across multiple states. When state and local procurement offices tag opportunities with this code, they are capturing general food service categories rather than a specific ingredient or processed-fruit product line.

Geographic spread of recent activity spans Illinois (State of Illinois Veterans Home Quincy, posted Feb 2026), Texas (Health and Human Services Commission, multiple postings Feb-Jul 2026), Oregon (Department of Corrections, Feb-Jun 2026), Georgia (multiple school districts and state operations, Jan-Jun 2026), and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District, Mar 2026). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center (response due Jul 13, 2026, with prior-period contract value of $1.5 million); Ben Hill County Schools IFB #26271 for comprehensive food products including fresh, frozen, and dairy items across multiple categories (response due Jun 15, 2026); and the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes, approximately 7,616 cases with delivery to Salem (response due Jun 19, 2026). The code shows sustained activity in school nutrition, institutional food service, and state-facility food supply but represents a mismatch between the nominal commodity descriptor and actual procurement scope.
