UNSPSC 50526902: Non GMO bold gold tamarillos

The variety of non GMO tamarillo known as non GMO bold gold tamarillo. 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 50526902 Non GMO bold gold tamarillos (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. The code nominally describes a specific tropical fruit variety, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it span fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs — bananas, apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, and other staples — bearing no connection to tamarillos. The mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the source system or a test case; no issuing body has solicited tamarillos specifically in the available record.

School nutrition programs across the Southeast and Texas remain the primary buyers soliciting broadly under fresh produce taxonomy, with activity centered in Georgia (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and the Douglas County School System cooperative serving 30 districts), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and Texas (McAllen Independent School District and Austin Independent School District). These jurisdictions issue RFPs, RFBs (Request for Bid), and IFBs (Invitation for Bid) for annual or multi-year contracts, typically with response dates between late February and late July 2026, and require HACCP plans, Buy American compliance, liability insurance, and traceability documentation as standard conditions. The procurement emphasis reflects federal nutrition program requirements, local sourcing preferences where cost and quality permit, and food safety mandates rather than any specific commodity focus.
