UNSPSC 50581747: Non GMO lula avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO lula 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 50581747 Non GMO lula avocados (Commodity) describes fresh produce sourced under state and local food-service procurement, though recent solicitation activity shows the code capturing a broader range of fresh fruits and vegetables rather than avocados specifically. State and local buying bodies soliciting produce under this code include county parks and recreation departments, school districts (including special education and lunch programs), healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices. The actual work being procured spans fresh-produce supply agreements requiring vendor compliance with food-safety standards, delivery schedules, quality assurance, temperature control where applicable, and often pricing subject to seasonal adjustment and commodity-index escalation clauses tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index data.

Recent activity spans multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies. Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) on October 8, 2026 for food services at North Collier Regional Park with a response date of March 6, 2025, which includes fresh-produce supply as part of broader concession operations; the contract carries a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points. Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce vendor proposals with an August 21, 2026 due date. Early County Board of Education issued a line-item food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) specifying 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with domestic-sourcing preference, low-sodium and whole-grain emphasis, and six-day-per-week delivery Monday through Friday across three school sites. The State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and kitchen products solicitation on May 15, 2026 with bids due June 22, 2026. Activity concentrates in Florida (Collier County, Marion Health Care Coalition) and Georgia (state procurement, Early County Schools), with the school district and state-level buyers representing the most active recent segment.
