UNSPSC 50581720: Non GMO chica avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO chica avocados. 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 50581720 Non GMO chica avocados (Commodity) represents fresh produce procurement by state and local food-service operations, though the recent opportunities block shows limited direct solicitation tied specifically to this item. State and local governments buy fresh fruits and vegetables for school meal programs, county parks and recreation food service, healthcare facilities, and state institutional dining under this code. The issuing bodies soliciting produce span school districts (typically the Early County Board of Education model), county parks and recreation departments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (Georgia). School districts dominate the volume, with line-by-line food bids for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance driving substantial annual procurement across multiple food categories including fresh vegetables and fruits alongside proteins, dairy, and prepared items. County parks concession operations and healthcare facility food service represent secondary but recurring buyers. Vendors must meet food-safety compliance (HACCP plans, health permits), temperature-maintenance requirements for perishables, domestic-sourcing preferences where specified, and delivery schedules synchronized to institutional meal cycles.

Recent activity centers in Georgia and Florida, with the Early County Board of Education bid (due June 8, 2026) soliciting 300+ food items including fresh vegetables and fruits for three schools, the Collier County Sun N Fun Water Park food concession ITN (due March 6, 2025) requiring diverse fresh-food offerings across multiple venues, and the Marion Health Care Coalition produce proposal request (due August 21, 2026) seeking qualified vendors for provision and delivery of fresh fruits and vegetables. The Georgia state procurement office issued a broad food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026) with scope and detailed item listings in an attached PDF. School district bids typically run annual cycles with firm pricing, domestic sourcing emphasis, volume commitments across multiple delivery points, and contract terms of July 1 through June 30 with renewal options. County and healthcare procurement cycles vary but emphasize quality standards, delivery reliability, and compliance with institutional food-safety and operational requirements.
