UNSPSC 50525722: Non GMO sierra rose plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO sierra rose 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 50525722 Non GMO sierra rose plucot is a Commodity code that covers fresh specialty stone fruit and hybrid fruit products procured by state and local agencies, primarily school districts and county recreation departments. School districts are the dominant issuing bodies under this code, with recent solicitations emphasizing fresh produce sourcing for student nutrition programs; county parks and recreation departments also solicit under it for concession operations. The work encompasses procurement of ready-to-eat produce meeting rigorous food-safety standards, traceability documentation, specific ripeness and size specifications (often tied to USDA grade guides or farm-origin requirements), and compliance with Buy American provisions and HACCP protocols. Recent school-district solicitations weight cost heavily in evaluation (typically 40 percent), with substantial points allocated to geographic preference, diverse-owned business status, references, and supplier qualifications. Delivery schedules are typically tight—two to five days per week with early morning windows (5:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m.)—and vendors commonly face 98+ percent fill-rate minimums and 24-hour substitute requirements.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia and Wisconsin school districts and county procurement offices. Madison Metropolitan School District issued two parallel bids in July 2026 for petite bananas (70–90 weekly cases, annual contract value $78,000, due July 29) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (5,900 weekly servings sourced within 400 miles of Madison, due July 29), both under IFB notice with cost weighted at 40 percent. Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia, solicited fresh produce across 200+ line items (including specialty fruits alongside commodity apples and berries) with sealed bids due June 26, 2026 and firm pricing required through June 30, 2027. Bartow County School System, Georgia, issued a Request for Proposal for local fresh fruits and vegetables (June 22, 2026 deadline) emphasizing 400-mile local sourcing with 100-point scoring criteria. The source shows no recent opportunity explicitly tagged to Non GMO sierra rose plucot as a line item; school districts and county recreation departments are sourcing across the broader fresh-produce commodity basket under these codes, and the specific plucot commodity may see narrow, episodic activity within that mix.
