UNSPSC 50586315: Non GMO oaxacan pink tomatoes

The variety of Non GMO tomates known as Non GMO oaxacan pink 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 50586315 Non GMO Oaxacan pink tomatoes is a Commodity code. State and local governments purchase fresh produce under this code, but the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically for Oaxacan pink tomatoes or other specialty heirloom varieties. Instead, procurement activity clusters around broad fresh-produce categories for school nutrition programs and child nutrition services. The issuing bodies span school districts (Early County Board of Education in Georgia, Northside Independent School District in Texas, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Bulloch County School District in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Glynn County Board of Education in Georgia, McAllen Independent School District in Texas, Austin Independent School District in Texas, and Douglas County School System in Georgia serving 30 districts via cooperative purchasing), state agencies (State of Georgia for general food procurement), and special-purpose cooperative vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative). The work solicited under this code encompasses fresh-fruit and fresh-vegetable supply, eggs, and ancillary produce items delivered to school campuses multiple times weekly, with USDA compliance, HACCP plans, Buy American requirements, and temperature-controlled logistics as baseline vendor obligations.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas. Representative solicitations include Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026, IFB scope covering 300+ food items with domestic sourcing preference and whole-grain emphasis), Northside Independent School District's fresh-produce RFP (posted April 14, 2026, due May 7, 2026, seeking USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable-compliant fresh produce with Texas-grown prioritization), Hillsborough County Public Schools' USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program specialty-produce RFP (posted April 13, 2026, due March 11, 2026, targeting pre-cut items in cases for 18 elementary schools), and Douglas County School System's cooperative RFP for 30 districts (posted February 4, 2026, due March 4, 2026, budgeted at $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two). Specialty heirloom tomato varieties like Oaxacan pink are not named in any of these solicitations; standard commodity items (apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, bell peppers, tomatoes by commodity type rather than varietal) dominate the bid lists. The code shows little relevant recent activity for this specific cultivar.
