UNSPSC 50584203: Non GMO lanro kohlrabi

The variety of Non GMO kohlrabi known as Non GMO lanro kohlrabi. 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 50584203 Non GMO lanro kohlrabi is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect broad food-service and produce procurement by counties, school districts, and health-care coalitions. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying fresh produce (fruits and vegetables), food-service concessions, and related kitchen supplies — not the narrow kohlrabi variety the code name suggests. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions (Collier County), school districts (Early County Board of Education), health-care coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state purchasing offices (State of Georgia). The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is being used as a catch-all for fresh-produce and food-service categories rather than a precision classifier for a single item type.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Georgia, and multi-state regional health-care procurement. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) due March 6, 2025 (posted October 8, 2026) for food-services concessions at North Collier Regional Park, including a water park and athletic facilities, with a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points and a three-year contract term plus two one-year renewal options. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line IFB due June 8, 2026 (posted May 11, 2026) for approximately 300+ food items and 60 non-food and paper supplies supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with domestic sourcing and whole-grain preferences and contract pricing firm for 15 days post-award with six-month escalation review thereafter. Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce proposals due August 21, 2026 (posted August 7, 2026) covering fresh fruits and vegetables for the 2026-2027 contract period. The State of Georgia posted an IFB for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026 (posted May 15, 2026), with full scope and pricing contained in attached specification documents.
