UNSPSC 50581741: Non GMO lamb haas avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO lamb haas 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 50581741 Non GMO lamb haas avocados, a Commodity code, shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for avocados, non-GMO produce varieties, or specialty produce of this type; instead, the tagged opportunities center on broad fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, which typically solicit generic fruit and vegetable items in bulk quantities rather than premium or specialty varieties like Hass avocados.

State and local buyers active under fresh produce codes are predominantly school districts and school system cooperatives procuring through RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB processes for child nutrition and cafeteria service. The recent solicitation activity spans Georgia (Bulloch County Schools, Glynn County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Douglas County Schools via the GEC Buying Cooperative), Texas (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Austin Independent School District, McAllen Independent School District), and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), with a smaller State of Georgia operational procurement. Response dates range from early March through late June 2026. These buyers emphasize domestic sourcing, Buy American compliance, HACCP and food safety certification, firm pricing for contract duration, weekly or twice-weekly delivery to multiple school sites between 6:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., and adherence to USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable standards. Evaluation typically weights price (30–50 points), product quality and freshness (15–30 points), vendor experience (10–20 points), and delivery reliability. This code does not report material opportunity volume for specialty avocado suppliers; prospective vendors should verify whether their product lines match the generic fresh-fruit-and-vegetable procurement focus that dominates school nutrition contracting.
