UNSPSC 50525839: Non GMO holiday plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO holiday 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 50525839 Non GMO holiday plums (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally covers non-GMO holiday plums, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with that scope. Instead, the solicitations are for general fresh produce procurement — bananas, fresh fruits and vegetables, and comprehensive produce item categories — across school nutrition programs serving multiple states. A mismatch between the code's narrow specification and the work actually being solicited suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that this code is not the active procurement vehicle for the commodity it nominally describes. No recent opportunities explicitly solicit non-GMO holiday plums by name or specification.

The opportunities that do appear under this code span school districts and school systems in Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Wisconsin, including Madison Metropolitan School District (RFB 4162, bananas due July 29, 2026; RFB 4163, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education (IFB fresh produce due June 26, 2026), Bartow County School System (RFP local fresh fruits and vegetables due June 22, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa (RFP fresh fruit and vegetable program due March 11, 2026, estimated $600,000 annual budget), Bulloch County School District (IFP local produce due May 4, 2026), Liberty County Board of Education (IFBs for produce and food products due April 29, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB fresh produce due April 27, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid 26-34 fresh produce due April 23, 2026), Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02 fresh produce due April 14, 2026), McAllen Independent School District in Texas (RFP 2026-1029 due March 6, 2026), Austin Independent School District (RFP 26RFP034 fresh produce and beverages due March 11, 2026), and Douglas County School System in Georgia (RFP SN 26-004 through GEC Buying Cooperative, estimated $5.5 million combined spending for 30 districts, due March 4, 2026). Procurement is concentrated among school nutrition programs serving multiple campuses with established delivery and HACCP compliance requirements, firm pricing terms, and Buy American provisions.
