UNSPSC 50586303: Non GMO black plum tomatoes

The variety of Non GMO tomates known as Non GMO black plum 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 50586303 Non GMO black plum tomatoes is a Commodity code that frames fresh produce procurement — specifically black plum tomatoes grown without genetically modified organisms — but the recent state and local solicitations show the code casting a much wider net across diverse fresh produce and food-service supply chains. The code appears in school district nutrition programs, regional park food concessions, healthcare facility food service, and state-level agricultural procurement, where it sits alongside broader produce categories and prepared-food items rather than single-variety vegetable sourcing. School districts, county governments, and specialized procurement coalitions dominate the issuing-body mix, with Early County Board of Education and Collier County posting multi-item food bids that fold produce (including vegetables of multiple types) into comprehensive food-service contracts under the National School Lunch Program and recreational concession operations. State departments and regional health systems also participate; the State of Georgia and Marion Health Care Coalition both posted produce procurement within the recent window.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Florida, and multi-state food-service procurement cycles aligned with school-year calendars and healthcare operational timelines. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB on May 11, 2026 (bids due June 8, 2026) covering approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits, fluid milk, and non-food supplies for three schools under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs through June 30, 2027, with domestic sourcing preference and USDA whole-grain specifications. Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate on October 8, 2026 (proposals due March 6, 2025) for food-service concessions at North Collier Regional Park, requiring a qualified vendor to operate across multiple venues with competitive pricing and health-safety compliance; the county offered a 10-point local-vendor preference for Collier or Lee County permanent business address. The State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products (May 15, 2026; bids due June 22, 2026), and Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce vendors (August 7, 2026; proposals due August 21, 2026) for 2026-2027 delivery. School districts emphasize firm, line-by-line pricing with no separate fuel surcharges, temperature-controlled delivery logistics, USDA compliance, and Buy American provisions; park and healthcare buyers prioritize operational reliability and menu variety over commodity-level single-item specification.
