UNSPSC 50542404: Frozen non GMO burtons favorite cherimoya

The variety of non GMO cherimoya known as non GMO burtons favorite cherimoya that has been frozen for preservation. 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 50542404 Frozen non GMO burtons favorite cherimoya, a Commodity code, does not match the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The sourced opportunities show school districts and county governments soliciting shelf-stable grocery items, fresh produce, and comprehensive food-service packages in support of school nutrition programs and senior services, with no references to the specialized product named in the code.

The mismatch reflects a common classification gap in state and local procurement systems. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote (IWQ) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables for senior services delivery by December 7, 2026. The City of Bridgeport Board of Education issued a bid in June 2026 for over 1,100 line items spanning breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meat products under the National School Lunch Program with delivery through July 2027. Hancock County Board of Education and Early County Board of Education both solicited fresh produce and comprehensive food-service supplies for school nutrition in June 2026 and May 2026 respectively, each with contract terms through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia posted a broad food and kitchen products solicitation in May 2026 with a June 22, 2026 due date. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with issuing bodies split between school districts (the dominant buyer type under recent activity), county governments, and state purchasing offices.

The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specialized product it nominally describes. Vendors pursuing work in state and local food procurement should verify classification accuracy in each RFP, RFQ, or IFB notice, as the taxonomy may not reflect the commodity or service mix actually being solicited.
