UNSPSC 50586301: Non GMO ailsa craig tomatoes

The variety of Non GMO tomates known as Non GMO ailsa craig tomatoes. 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 50586301 Non GMO ailsa craig tomatoes, a Commodity code, covers fresh produce sourcing for state and local institutional food service operations, including school nutrition programs, county parks concessions, healthcare facilities, and state agency dining. State and local governments buy this code when they solicit fresh vegetables for cafeterias, meal programs, concession stands, and food-service vendors operating on government property. The issuing bodies span school districts, county boards of commissioners, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions; school districts appear as repeat buyers given the steady demand from National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent activity shows solicitations from Georgia (State of Georgia food supplies bid, June 22, 2026 deadline), Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners' North Collier Regional Park food services ITN, March 6, 2025 deadline; Marion Health Care Coalition produce proposals, August 21, 2026 deadline), and Georgia (Early County Board of Education school lunch program food bid, June 8, 2026 deadline). The Early County Schools solicitation exemplifies the scope: the district sought line-by-line bids for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits, with domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain and low-sodium specifications, and firm pricing for delivery Monday through Friday to three designated schools. Collier County's food-services ITN for park concessions required diverse, high-quality food and beverage options across multiple venues, with a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points for businesses meeting Collier or Lee County permanent-address and residency criteria. Contracts typically run one to three years with renewal options, and vendors must comply with food-safety regulations, obtain health permits, maintain commercial liability insurance, and in school settings, satisfy Buy American provisions and HACCP plan requirements.
