UNSPSC 50523101: Non GMO bardajic figs

The variety of non GMO figs known as non GMO bardajic figs. 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 50523101 Non GMO bardajic figs is a Commodity code that nominally covers specialty fig products; however, the recent opportunities block shows no active state or local solicitations for figs of any kind, GMO status, or bardajic variety. Instead, the posted opportunities span general fresh produce procurement (Marion Health Care Coalition RFQ for produce, Hancock County Schools IFB for over 200 line items of fresh fruits and vegetables, Bartow County Schools RFP for local sourcing of seasonal produce, State of Georgia bid for food supplies and kitchen products, Early County Schools food and non-food bid) and highly specific commodity purchases such as petite bananas (Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4162 with 70–90 weekly cases and $78,000 annual value) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4163 for ready-to-eat produce). A single food-services ITN from Collier County Board of County Commissioners (North Collier Regional Park) covers concession operations and menu variety but does not specify figs. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its narrow commodity scope.

The issuing bodies across recent opportunities are school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County), county governments (Collier County, Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia); school nutrition programs dominate the recent record. Geographic concentration appears in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, State of Georgia procurement) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), with no opportunities posted for specialty figs or products matching the code's nominal designation. Vendors pursuing activity under this code should note the mismatch between its title and what state and local food procurement offices actually solicit, and may find greater opportunity in broader UNSPSC families covering fresh produce, specialty fruits, or organic commodity sourcing.
