UNSPSC 50626917: Non GMO feltham first peas

The variety of Non GMO sugar peas known as Non GMO feltham first peas. 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 50626917 Non GMO feltham first peas is a Commodity code representing a specific fresh vegetable product purchased by state and local governments, though recent state and local solicitations show minimal direct activity specifically targeting this commodity by name. Instead, state and local procurement under related fresh produce and food-service codes predominantly reflects broad solicitations for fresh vegetables, produce, and groceries that span dozens or hundreds of line items rather than single-commodity procurements. The actual buying reflects school districts, state corrections departments, state health and human services agencies, and veterans homes seeking fresh produce as part of larger food-service contracts covering fresh and frozen vegetables, fruits, proteins, dairy, and staples. The geographic scope of recent activity spans Georgia, Missouri, Texas, Oregon, Illinois, and Virginia, with school districts representing the plurality of issuing bodies alongside state corrections and state health agencies.

Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (approximately 7,616 cases due June 19, 2026); the Douglas County School System in Georgia issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One (due March 4, 2026); and Fairfax County Public Schools issuing IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 to supply 45 elementary, middle, and high schools plus distribution kitchens, with responses due April 27, 2026. Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System have each posted recent food procurement IFBs and RFPs covering fresh produce as components of broader grocery or nutrition-service contracts with response dates ranging from late April through June 2026. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026) with prior historical value of $1.5 million, and IFB HHS0016792 for supplemental food and consumables statewide across state hospitals and supported living centers with maximum potential value of $4.5 million. The code itself sees little standalone procurement; vendors pursuing this category should position fresh vegetables as part of broader food-service and school-nutrition supplier relationships rather than as isolated commodity plays.
