UNSPSC 50525851: Non GMO marked black plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO marked black 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 50525851 Non GMO marked black plums is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying fresh produce — typically as part of broader food-service contracts for school nutrition programs, county parks and recreation facilities, and healthcare organizations. The recent opportunities show school districts, county governments, and special-purpose health coalitions procuring fresh fruits and vegetables (including specific apple varieties, berries, melons, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty items) as line items within comprehensive food bids, often with quality and delivery specifications tied to student nutrition programs and public-facility food service. The code's nominal focus on non-GMO black plums does not align closely with the recent solicitations captured here, which treat plums as one item within multi-hundred-line produce categories rather than as standalone procurement targets.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Wisconsin. The Marion Health Care Coalition (MHCC) posted a general produce proposal request due August 21, 2026. Madison Metropolitan School District released two RFBs in July 2026 — one for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000) and one for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles and within Wisconsin (due July 29, 2026, contingent on federal Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program grant approval). Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with delivery to three school sites and sealed bids due June 26, 2026. Bartow County School System in Georgia sought local fresh fruits and vegetables from farms within 400 miles (proposal deadline June 22, 2026, contract running July 20, 2026 through June 30, 2027). Early County Board of Education in Georgia requested line-by-line food bids covering 300+ items including fresh fruits and vegetables, due June 8, 2026.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix; geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia, with secondary activity in Wisconsin and Florida.
