UNSPSC 50522301: Non GMO chataigne breadfruits

The variety of non GMO breadfruit known as non GMO chataigne breadfruit. 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 50522301 Non GMO chataigne breadfruits is a Commodity code for specialty fruit procurement. State and local governments are actually buying fresh produce—bananas, apples, berries, root vegetables, citrus, leafy greens, and ready-to-eat prepared produce—through school districts and county parks. While the code's formal name references chataigne breadfruits specifically, the recent solicitations reveal that state and local purchasing under this code encompasses broad fresh-fruit procurement, particularly through school nutrition programs sourcing produce for the National School Lunch Program, Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program, and county parks food services. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education), county governments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state governments (State of Georgia). School nutrition departments are the dominant buyer category, with multiple districts issuing requests for produce bids in a single season.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast and Midwest. Recent opportunities are concentrated in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, and State of Georgia procurement), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's IFB for petite bananas with an estimated annual contract value of $78,000 and a July 29, 2026 response date; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with a June 26, 2026 due date; and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, due June 22, 2026. School districts commonly impose geographic preferences (400-mile sourcing radius, Wisconsin-only sourcing with state diversity-program vendor eligibility bonuses) and require HACCP plans, traceability documentation, E-Verify authorization, and delivery compliance to central food production or warehouse facilities. Contract terms typically run one school fiscal year (July through June) with renewal options, and pricing is evaluated against cost, vendor qualifications, compliance with food safety and Buy American standards, and local or diverse-business preferences worth 5–15 evaluation points.
