UNSPSC 50524313: Non GMO wolfe loquats

The variety of non GMO loquats known as non GMO wolfe 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 50524313 Non GMO wolfe loquats is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not map to active procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code instead reflect broad fresh-produce procurement by school districts, county parks, and health-care coalitions—including petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root crops, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty items—none of which are wolfe loquats or non-GMO specialty citrus. The issuing bodies in the recent record include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin; Hancock County Board of Education and Bartow County School System in Georgia; Early County Board of Education in Georgia), a county parks department (Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida), and a health-care coalition (Marion Health Care Coalition), along with a state-level food-procurement vehicle (State of Georgia). The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual contents of recent solicitations signals either a data-quality issue in how opportunities were tagged or that wolfe loquats see no meaningful recent demand from state and local buyers.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, and Early County school districts plus the State of Georgia procurement) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), with a single Florida county parks solicitation. The representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's request for over 200 line items of fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year via IFB due June 26, 2026; Madison Metropolitan School District's separate RFBs for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks from Wisconsin sources (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026 and contingent on USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program funding approval); and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, due June 22, 2026. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, emphasizing domestic sourcing, seasonal variety, traceability, local preference, and compliance with food-safety and federal Buy American standards. The code itself appears dormant for its stated commodity.
