UNSPSC 50583710: Non GMO spanish morado garlic

The variety of Non GMO garlic known as Non GMO spanish morado garlic. 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 50583710 Non GMO Spanish Morado Garlic — a Commodity code — shows little relevant recent activity. The code's abstract framing does not match the state and local solicitations the source identifies. Recent opportunities consistently target fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs and institutional food service, with emphasis on comprehensive fruit and vegetable assortments, fresh-cut produce, eggs, and beverages — not specialty garlic varieties. School districts, county school systems, and independent school districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri are the dominant issuing bodies, and the work centers on weekly or twice-weekly deliveries to multiple school campuses, USDA compliance (Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, food safety documentation), and cost-plus or fixed-price annual contracts. Representative solicitations include the Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (due June 8, 2026, via RFP for 300+ food items across National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs), Northside Independent School District's fresh-produce RFP for child nutrition (RFP 2026-048, due May 7, 2026, across 128 campuses in the San Antonio area), and the Douglas County School System's cooperative-purchasing RFP for produce and eggs serving 30 Georgia districts (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026, with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million across two geographic areas).

Geographic concentration centers on Georgia school districts (Early County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, and Douglas County cooperative), followed by Texas districts (Northside ISD San Antonio, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD) and scattered activity in Florida (Hillsborough County) and Missouri (Rockwood R-VI). The source shows no procurement activity for non-GMO Spanish morado garlic or narrow-specialty produce items. Business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for current state and local opportunity pursuit and monitor broader fresh-produce family codes (50580000 range) where institutional food-service demand is concentrated.
