UNSPSC 50526222: Non GMO strawberryleaf raspberry

The variety of non GMO raspberry known as non GMO strawberryleaf raspberry. 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 50526222 Non GMO strawberryleaf raspberry is a Commodity code covering fresh berry procurement, but the recent state and local solicitations show little activity directly aligned with this code's specificity. The code nominally targets a niche berry product; however, the opportunities in the record instead reflect broad fresh-produce and food-service procurement across school districts, county parks, healthcare coalitions, and state governments. When berries do appear, they are bundled within larger fresh-fruit-and-vegetable line-item bids rather than solicited as standalone non-GMO specialty items. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System all posting produce bids in recent months. County governments, state agencies, and healthcare coalitions also procure produce under parallel codes, but none of the posted opportunities specifically name non-GMO strawberryleaf raspberry as a line item or performance requirement.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin, with secondary activity in Florida and nationally through state-level procurement. Madison Metropolitan School District posted separate RFBs for petite bananas and fresh fruit-and-vegetable snacks due July 29, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education requested fresh-produce bids under IFB #SN002-2027 due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 produce line items including berries; and Bartow County School System solicited local fresh fruits and vegetables via RFP 10-2026-019 due June 22, 2026, emphasizing 400-mile sourcing. Early County Board of Education posted line-by-line food bids due June 8, 2026, encompassing vegetables and fruits. Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park due March 6, 2025, and Marion Health Care Coalition sought general produce vendors due August 21, 2026. The code shows limited recent direct relevance; vendors targeting niche specialty berries may find better positioning in broader produce-family codes where school-nutrition and food-service buyers currently concentrate activity.
