UNSPSC 50626849: Non GMO paprika purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO paprika. 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 50626849 Non GMO paprika purees is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity specifically aligned to this product line. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations explicitly requesting paprika purees, non-GMO or otherwise. The closest tangential activity appears in multi-item food and consumables procurements where paprika or paprika-based seasonings may be included as line items within broader condiment or spice categories—such as the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026) covering 210 line items including condiments for state hospitals and supported living centers, or the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF, extended to May 4, 2026) spanning approximately 382 food and supply items for TDCJ warehouse distribution. School district nutrition program bids, including Burke County Public Schools (Waynesboro, Georgia, IFB due June 5, 2026) and Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia, IFB due June 15, 2026), similarly include seasonings and condiments as minor line items within comprehensive grocery procurements but do not isolate paprika as a standalone commodity request.

The issuing bodies procuring food-related goods in the recent activity are primarily state health and corrections departments, county school districts, and county human services agencies, concentrated in Texas and Georgia. No stand-alone, paprika-specific RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, or ITBs appear in the recent opportunities. This code likely sees sporadic, low-volume activity embedded within larger consumables and food service contracts rather than as a direct market driver. Vendors pursuing this commodity should monitor multi-item food service bids from state supported living centers, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs where condiment and seasoning line items appear, though this code does not show sufficient independent procurement activity to warrant focused business development effort at this time.
