UNSPSC 50626841: Non GMO maguey leaf purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO maguey leaf. 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 50626841 Non GMO maguey leaf purees, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for maguey leaf purees or closely related specialty plant-based ingredients; instead, recent state and local postings under this code tag general food procurement—weekly food orders for institutional dining, bulk grocery supply for school nutrition programs, fresh produce, canned goods, and prepared foods for state hospitals, correctional facilities, and school districts. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and actual postings suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that non-GMO maguey leaf purees represent a negligible line item within broader food-supply contracts rather than a standalone procurement category.

No representative opportunities exist that target maguey leaf purees specifically. State and local governments soliciting food products under or near this code are purchasing volume grocery items (canned tomatoes, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, condiments, and prepared entrees) for school nutrition programs, correctional departments, veterans homes, and state-supported living centers across Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, Oregon, Texas, and Virginia. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and health services, school districts, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple districts. The actual procurement activity reflects institutional meal service at scale—hundreds of line items, firm fixed pricing, weekly or scheduled deliveries to multiple sites, Buy American compliance, and HACCP food safety requirements—not specialty ingredient sourcing.
