UNSPSC 50626832: Non GMO hop sprout purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO hop sprouts. 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 50626832 Non GMO hop sprout purees is a Commodity code that does not reflect meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The source contains fourteen recent state and local solicitations, none of which specify hop sprout purees or non-GMO hop sprout products. Instead, the recent opportunities encompass broad food service procurement—canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods—sourced by corrections departments, health and human services agencies, school districts, and veterans homes across multiple states. The code's narrow specificity (non-GMO hop sprout purees) appears misaligned with the actual commodity demand in state and local food service contracting, where solicitations stress USDA grade compliance, Buy American requirements, sodium limits, shelf-life standards, and delivery logistics rather than specialty produce inputs or hop-based ingredients.

The issuing bodies in the recent activity span corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections), health and human services (Texas HHSC, Georgia state operations), school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools Virginia; Douglas County, Liberty County, Burke County, Ben Hill County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County in Georgia; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri), and veterans homes (Illinois Veterans Home). Geographic concentration appears strongest in Georgia, Texas, and Oregon, with secondary activity in Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes (S2910000016405, due June 19, 2026) and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's July 2026 IFB for food and consumable products supporting state supported living centers statewide (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026). No recent solicitations identify hop sprout purees, non-GMO specialty produce, or related inputs as line items or procurement categories, indicating minimal or no current state and local demand under this code.
