UNSPSC 50521607: Non GMO bulida apricots

The variety of non GMO apricots known as non GMO bulida apricots. 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 50521607 Non GMO bulida apricots, a Commodity code, describes specialty fresh fruit procurement driven primarily by school districts and regional food-service operators supplying institutional meal programs, parks, and health-care facilities. State and local buyers under this code seek fresh produce meeting specific quality, ripeness, sourcing, and processing standards for student nutrition, concession operations, and meal-service programs. The issuing bodies span school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Early County, Bartow County), county parks and recreation divisions (Collier County), health-care coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state purchasing offices. Recent opportunities reflect institutional demand for produce with documented traceability, USDA compliance certification, local-sourcing or domestic-content preferences, and ready-to-eat or pre-processed delivery formats.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin. Madison Metropolitan School District bid petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) at an estimated contract value of $78,000 annually for 70–90 weekly cases during school sessions, requiring 98 percent fill rates and delivery between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. weekdays.

Bartow County School System sought local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (RFP 10-2026-019, due June 22, 2026) for the 2026–27 contract term. Collier County Parks and Recreation issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (ITN 258360, due March 6, 2025), covering concession operations with a 10-point local-vendor preference.
