UNSPSC 50525824: Non GMO early rosa plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO early rosa plums. 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 50525824 Non GMO early rosa plums is a Commodity code representing specific fresh fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service operations. The recent opportunities block shows school districts, county parks departments, and healthcare coalitions sourcing fresh produce — including fresh fruits and vegetables — but the opportunities do not isolate plums or specifically reference early rosa varieties as distinct line items; instead they treat plums within broader fresh fruit and vegetable aggregates. The code's nominal scope does not align clearly with the recent activity posted under it, which focuses on general produce procurement rather than plum-specific sourcing. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) has issued RFBs for petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks; Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce spanning apples, berries, melons, citrus, and leafy greens for the 2026-2027 school year; Bartow County School System (Georgia) and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) each seek local or line-item fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park requiring diverse food and beverage options.

State and local procurement under this code draws activity from school districts across Wisconsin and Georgia, county governments in Florida and Georgia, and healthcare entities. Recent school district solicitations in Wisconsin and Georgia dominate the sample — Madison Metropolitan School District issued two produce RFBs with due dates in late July 2026; Hancock County Board of Education issued an IFB for fresh produce due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items and delivery to three school sites through June 30, 2027; Bartow County School System issued an RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables with a June 22, 2026 proposal deadline and contract award anticipated July 20, 2026, running through June 30, 2027 with four one-year renewal options; Early County Board of Education issued a food bid request due June 8, 2026 encompassing 300+ food items and non-food supplies for school nutrition programs running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Marion Health Care Coalition (Florida) solicited produce proposals due August 21, 2026. The geographic spread centers on Georgia and Wisconsin, with activity also in Florida. The code shows modest direct activity for plum procurement; broader fresh-produce solicitations dominate, and plums appear incidentally within multi-item fruit aggregates rather than as standalone Commodity-level buys.
