UNSPSC 50626865: Non GMO water spinach purees

The type of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO water spinach. 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 50626865 Non GMO water spinach purees is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code show almost no activity actually purchasing water spinach purees. Instead, the solicitations clipped under this code describe broad food service procurement for state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, schools, and county senior services—spanning shelf-stable proteins, canned vegetables, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, condiments, and food service supplies. The code's nominal scope appears mismatched to the buying pattern; state and local food procurement operates at much higher commodity-family levels (general food products, canned vegetables, proteins) rather than at the level of a single specialty produce item. If water spinach purees are being purchased by state and local governments, they are not surfacing as distinct line items in the opportunities shown here.

The most recent opportunities come from Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple state-supported living center food bids in June and August 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia, October 2026 for shelf-stable foods), Ben Hill County Schools (Georgia, May 2026), Burke County Public Schools (Georgia, May 2026), Oregon Department of Corrections (canned tomatoes, June 2026), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller (May 2026). These represent state agencies, county governments, and school districts across Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Response dates have ranged from May through October 2026, with delivery windows typically 30 to 72 hours from order receipt on F.O.B. Destination terms. The issuing bodies consistently require firm fixed pricing, references, debarment certifications, E-Verify compliance, and liability insurance. Given the mismatch between the code name and the actual solicitation scope, this code does not appear to reflect current state and local purchasing of non-GMO water spinach purees as a standalone commodity.
