UNSPSC 50524645: Non GMO royal majestic melons

The variety of non GMO melons known as non GMO royal majestic melons. 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 50524645 Non GMO royal majestic melons is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent activity. The eight recent solicitations tagged under or near this code do not reflect procurement of the specific melon variety named in the code; instead, they document broad school nutrition fresh-produce and food-service contracting across Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida, spanning petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, whole-produce assortments, and a la carte beverages. The code's nominal scope—a single specialty melon commodity—does not align with the work actually being solicited, which targets comprehensive produce distribution for child nutrition programs serving thousands of students across multi-school districts, cooperative purchasing vehicles, and region-wide food-service consolidation.

State and local school nutrition programs and the GEC Buying Cooperative (representing 30 Georgia school districts) are the primary issuing bodies in the visible record. The dominant geographic concentration is Georgia, where Hancock County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and Douglas County boards of education have posted separate RFPs, IFBs, and ITBs for produce and food products between February and July 2026, with supplementary activity in Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), Texas (McAllen and Austin independent school districts), and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools). Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs (posted February 4, 2026, due March 4, 2026, through the GEC Buying Cooperative) estimated at approximately $5.5 million across two geographic areas, and the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for over 200 fresh-produce line items (posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026) with delivery to three school locations. None of these solicitations specifically request royal majestic melons or any named melon variety; all prioritize cost, volume pricing against USDA market indices, domestic sourcing under Buy American provisions, and compliance with school nutrition program specifications. If your firm supplies specialty melon varieties to food distributors or school food-service vendors, this code does not currently reflect end-user procurement activity worth pursuing at the state and local level.
