UNSPSC 50581746: Non GMO loretta avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO loretta 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 50581746 Non GMO Loretta avocados (Commodity) does not align with current state and local procurement activity in the available records. The code specifies a single, highly specialized avocado variety, but the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for this or any avocado product. Instead, state and local buyers under produce-related UNSPSC codes are procuring broad fresh-produce portfolios — including apples, bananas, leafy greens, root vegetables, berries, and citrus — for school nutrition programs, fresh-fruit-and-vegetable federal grant initiatives, and general institutional food service. No issuing body has posted a solicitation naming loretta avocados or any avocado line item in the available records dating to February 2026.

School districts dominate the recent activity, with state departments appearing in only two of seventeen opportunities. Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Northside Independent School District (Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), 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), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have all issued RFPs, IFBs, or ITBs for fresh produce within the past four months. Georgia and Texas lead in frequency, with multiple districts in each state actively sourcing fresh produce, vegetables, and eggs for July 2026 through June 2027 school-year contracts. Response deadlines span February through June 2026, with awards typically targeted within 60 days of bid opening. Specialty produce — such as locally grown items within 200 miles (Bulloch County), Texas-grown options with "Harvest of the Month" preference (Northside ISD), and non-GMO or organic-leaning specifications — appear in some RFPs, but no solicitation names loretta avocados specifically. The procurement landscape does not currently support demand for this single commodity at the state and local level.
