UNSPSC 50581744: Non GMO lisa p avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO lisa p 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 50581744 Non GMO Lisa P avocados (Commodity) does not reflect the produce procurement activity currently visible in state and local solicitations. Recent opportunities tagged with or adjacent to this code show school districts, county boards of education, and independent school systems across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri soliciting fresh produce for child nutrition programs, but the available records do not isolate avocado procurement as a distinct line item or focus. The code's nominal scope—a single specialty produce variety—does not align with the institutional fresh-produce buys actually occurring: school nutrition programs are procuring 60–72 mixed produce line items (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, leafy greens, berries, peppers, tomatoes, eggs) bundled into comprehensive annual supply contracts, not single-commodity purchases. Avocados, when mentioned, appear as one item within broader produce specifications, not as a standalone procurement target.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent activity from Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Douglas County School System (Georgia cooperative serving 30 districts). Solicitations are issued as RFP, ITB, and IFB notices with response deadlines spanning March through June 2026; representative recent opportunities include Northside ISD's RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce (due May 7, 2026), Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026), and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for one region (due March 4, 2026). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas; Florida and Missouri show isolated recent activity. The code itself shows little recent dedicated activity; the mismatch between the nominal commodity (a single avocado variety) and the actual procurement pattern (mixed-commodity institutional food service) signals that this code may not reflect how state and local buyers actually categorize fresh-produce contracts.
