UNSPSC 50525713: Non GMO flavor queen plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO flavor queen plucot. 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 50525713 Non GMO flavor queen plucot is a Commodity code that covers specialty fresh fruit procurement by state and local food service operations, including school districts, county parks departments, and healthcare organizations. Recent state and local opportunities show that this code encompasses purchases of fresh produce items — from specialty fruits like plucots to broader vegetable and produce assortments — for institutional food service, school nutrition programs, and regional park concession operations. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Early County Board of Education, Hancock County Schools, Bartow County Schools), county governments (Collier County), state procurement offices (State of Georgia), and healthcare-related entities (Marion Health Care Coalition). School districts dominate the recent activity, with multiple districts soliciting fresh-produce contracts for student meal programs and concession venues during the 2026–2027 school year.
