UNSPSC 50522201: Non GMO bluetta blueberries

The variety of non GMO blueberries known as non GMO bluecrop blueberries. 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 50522201 Non GMO bluetta blueberries (Commodity) does not see meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code does not align with the recent opportunities posted under it — the available records show school districts and educational cooperatives procuring general fresh produce categories (bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, melons, citrus) for nutrition programs, but no issuing body has solicited blueberries specifically, and none mention non-GMO or varietal designation as a requirement or focus. The mismatch suggests either misclassification of these records or disuse of this narrow commodity code in state and local procurement practice.

The broader fresh produce procurement activity across the dataset is concentrated in Georgia school systems (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, Douglas County School System cooperative) and extends into Florida (Hillsborough County) and Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), typically under RFP, RFB, or IFB notices posted in early-to-mid 2026 with response dates in March through July 2026. School nutrition programs dominate the buyer base, with contract values ranging from $78,000 annually (Madison petite bananas) to $4.4 million (Douglas County cooperative Area One produce). If your firm supplies specialty produce, sourcing through broader fresh-produce codes and then narrowing on product mix may prove more effective than pursuing this code directly.
