UNSPSC 50525866: Non GMO red rosa plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO red 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 50525866 Non GMO red rosa plums is a Commodity code that covers the procurement of specialty fresh fruit — specifically non-GMO red rosa plum varieties — by state and local entities including school districts, county governments, health care coalitions, and parks departments. State and local buyers source this product as part of broader fresh-produce procurement for school lunch programs, health facility food services, park concessions, and institutional food operations. The code reflects a specialized segment within fresh-fruit purchasing where buyers explicitly require non-GMO certification and a particular plum cultivar rather than generic commodity fruit.

The recent opportunities record shows limited activity specifically tagged to this commodity code. Recent solicitations from school districts and county governments in the region are pursuing broader fresh-produce contracts (Hancock County Board of Education's 200+ line-item fresh produce IFB, Madison Metropolitan School District's fresh fruit and vegetable snacks RFB, Bartow County Schools' local fresh fruit and vegetable RFP, and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' food services ITN for park concessions) but the source does not identify a standalone solicitation for non-GMO red rosa plums by name or specific quantity since the posting record began. The sourcing observed under related produce codes spans Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), and Florida (Collier County), but no recent opportunity in the <most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities> block is expressly scoped to non-GMO red rosa plums as a line item or contract focus. Vendors targeting this specific commodity should monitor school nutrition program produce RFBs and county parks food-service solicitations for inclusion as a line item within multi-product fruit buys rather than expect standalone plum-specific opportunities.
