UNSPSC 50525450: Non GMO summer gold pears

The variety of non GMO pears known as non GMO summer gold pears. 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 50525450 Non GMO summer gold pears (Commodity) sees little recent activity that aligns with the code's nominal scope. The single recent opportunity in the block—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas, posted July 8, 2026 with bids due July 29, 2026—is unrelated to pears or stone fruits; it solicits bananas in 150-count case packs, sized 5" to 5.5", ripened to stages 3.5 through 4.5 per the Chiquita color guide, for weekly delivery of 70–90 cases during school sessions at an estimated annual contract value of $78,000. The remaining opportunities in the block cover fresh produce broadly (including apples, citrus, berries, broccoli, leafy greens, tomatoes, and other produce categories) under codes that do not match 50525450, suggesting the block returns results tagged to produce-family codes rather than this commodity-specific code.

The opportunities that do appear indicate that state and local school districts across Georgia, Texas, and Wisconsin solicit fresh produce through RFBs, RFPs, and IFBs on annual contracts, typically with consolidated school nutrition programs as issuing bodies and geographic sourcing preferences or local-grower initiatives increasingly common (Bulloch County and Bartow County in Georgia both emphasize 200–400-mile sourcing radii; Austin ISD in Texas and Hillsborough County in Florida add Good Food Purchasing Program requirements). The code does not surface as a distinct procurement focus in the recent-opportunities block, and business development professionals pursuing pear-specific opportunities should monitor broader fresh-produce solicitations from school districts, counties, and state agencies rather than expect dedicated UNSPSC 50525450 notices.
