UNSPSC 50525601: Non GMO cherimoya pineapple

The variety of non GMO pineapples known as non GMO cherimoya pineapple. 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 50525601 Non GMO cherimoya pineapple is a Commodity code that does not see meaningful recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not request non-GMO cherimoya or pineapple specifically; instead, they solicit fresh produce generically (bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and mixed produce items for school nutrition programs, regional parks, healthcare facilities, and county food services). The code's narrow, product-specific framing does not match the broad, commodity-agnostic procurement patterns in the source data, which emphasize weekly or seasonal fresh-produce deliveries with quality, safety, and delivery-timeline requirements rather than procurement of particular cultivars or non-GMO designations.

State and local procurement activity under the adjacent produce codes appears concentrated in school districts and county nutrition programs across Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's request for petite bananas (RFB 4162, bids due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000), Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce bid for 200+ line items spanning apples, berries, and specialty fruits (IFB #SN002-2027, bids due June 26, 2026), and Bartow County School System's local fresh fruit and vegetable RFP sourcing within 400 miles (proposals due June 22, 2026). Early County Board of Education, Marion Health Care Coalition, and Collier County Parks and Recreation have also posted produce solicitations. School nutrition programs predominate as buyers, typically setting volume requirements in weekly or annual case projections, imposing food-safety and traceability mandates, and applying local- or diverse-vendor preferences where applicable. The code's specific product focus presents a poor fit for current market activity and warrants reassessment of whether cherimoya and pineapple represent an actionable purchasing category in state and local procurement today.
