UNSPSC 50523803: Non GMO dwarf huckleberries

The variety of non GMO huckleberries known as non GMO dwarf huckleberries. 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 50523803 Non GMO dwarf huckleberries is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of fresh fruits and specialty produce items for school nutrition and institutional food service programs. Recent solicitations under this code show schools and districts buying diverse fresh produce categories—apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, citrus, melons, and specialty items—rather than dwarf huckleberries specifically. The code's nominal scope and actual buying diverge significantly; the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for huckleberries or berry-specific procurement, suggesting the code shows little relevant recent activity for this particular commodity line.

School districts across Georgia, Florida, and Texas dominate the issuing-body mix, with representative recent solicitations including Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026), both requiring weekly deliveries to single districts; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term; Bulloch County School District's RFP for locally sourced produce requiring 200-mile origin compliance (proposals due May 4, 2026, contract July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027); and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 school districts with $5.5 million estimated annual spend (proposals due March 4, 2026). Procurement is concentrated in Georgia and includes Texas and Florida districts; larger cooperative purchasing vehicles like GEC expand reach across multiple jurisdictions. Standard terms across opportunities include Buy American requirements (51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, liability insurance ($500,000 to $2 million typical), weekly or variable-day delivery windows, and price-firm contracts with prospective redetermination clauses tied to USDA pricing indices or consumer price data.
