UNSPSC 50525607: Non GMO red spanish pineapple

The variety of non GMO pineapples known as non GMO red spanish 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 50525607 Non GMO red spanish pineapple, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity. The source contains no recent state or local solicitations specifically requesting red spanish pineapples or pineapples in general. The most-recent-opportunities block lists 17 school district and state education procurement records, all tagged with this code but requesting broader fresh produce categories including bananas, apples, berries, vegetables, eggs, and miscellaneous fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs. None of the solicitations foreground pineapples as a line item or named product category, and the code's nominal scope—a single branded pineapple variety—does not align with what state and local education buyers are actually procuring under the code designation in practice.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, and Wisconsin dominate the recent opportunities, including Madison Metropolitan School District (RFB 4162 and RFB 4163), Hancock County Schools (IFB SN002-2027), Bartow County School System (RFP 10-2026-019), Bulloch County School District (IFP), Liberty County Board of Education (two IFBs), Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid 26-34), Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02), McAllen Independent School District (RFP 2026-1029), Austin Independent School District (RFP 26RFP034), Douglas County School System (RFP SN 26-004), Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, and Early County Board of Education. These solicitations request comprehensive fresh produce portfolios—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, citrus fruits, and eggs—for school lunch and breakfast programs, with estimated contract values ranging from $78,000 (Madison Metropolitan, petite bananas only) to $4.4 million (Douglas County cooperative). The mismatch between the code's specific scope and the actual procurement activity suggests the code may be incorrectly applied in the state and local procurement system, or this commodity tier is not actively solicited as a discrete line item by education procurement offices.
