UNSPSC 50524308: Non GMO mogi loquats

The variety of non GMO loquats known as non GMO mogi loquats. 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 50524308 Non GMO mogi loquats, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific fruit variety, yet the recent opportunities tagged under it span broad fresh produce categories — petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, and produce generally — rather than mogi loquats specifically. State and local issuing bodies soliciting produce include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bartow County School System), county park and recreation departments (Collier County), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix, with repeated activity from multiple districts in Georgia and Wisconsin. The scope of work encompasses fresh fruit and vegetable supply for school meal programs, park concessions, and healthcare operations, with emphasis on food safety compliance, HACCP plans, traceability documentation, delivery scheduling, and adherence to USDA procurement standards including Buy American provisions and whole-grain requirements.

Recent opportunities span Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, State of Georgia), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Florida (Collier County). Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (200+ line items, bid due June 26, 2026), Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for petite bananas at $78,000 annual estimated value (bid due July 29, 2026), Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (proposal due June 22, 2026), and Collier County's ITN for park food concession services including fresh food offerings (proposal due March 6, 2025 — note: posted date of October 8, 2026 conflicts with the 2025 due date in the source). School districts consistently weight cost evaluation heavily (40% in multiple bids), require product traceability and farm-of-origin documentation, mandate delivery within narrow time windows (early morning windows, 5:00–7:00 a.m. typical), enforce minimum liability insurance thresholds ($500,000 to $1,000,000), and apply geographic or diversity-business preferences where procurement rules permit. The code shows little evidence of mogi loquat–specific demand; recent activity under this code tag appears misaligned with the code's nominal scope.
