UNSPSC 50581751: Non GMO meya p avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO meya 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 50581751 Non-GMO Hass avocados (Commodity) does not match the actual work state and local governments are buying under this code. The recent solicitation activity tagged to this code spans fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and specialized USDA child nutrition initiatives across multiple states—but no opportunities in the dataset reference avocados, GMO status, or the Hass variety specifically. School districts, county boards of education, and state agencies are soliciting fresh produce on a broad line-item basis that may incidentally include avocados as one commodity among dozens, but the code appears misapplied to institutional produce contracting as a whole rather than reflecting a discrete avocado supply market.

The recent opportunities show school nutrition programs across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida issuing RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs for annual fresh produce supply to support the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. Representative solicitations include the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two; Northside Independent School District RFP 2026-048 in San Antonio (due May 7, 2026) for fresh produce delivery to 127 schools with USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance; Hillsborough County Public Schools RFP in Tampa (due March 11, 2026) for specialty fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program; and Bulloch County School District IFP for locally grown produce within 200 miles of Statesboro, Georgia (due May 4, 2026). Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and county boards of education. Because the code does not align with the actual solicitation content, readers evaluating avocado supply should treat this code as misfiled and search more granularly by product line item rather than relying on this UNSPSC classification for market intelligence.
