UNSPSC 50586802: Non GMO aloe leaves

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO aloe leaves. 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 50586802 Non GMO aloe leaves is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialized fresh produce items, particularly fresh fruits and vegetables sourced under food service and nutritional-support contracts. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers acquiring fresh produce through school nutrition programs, regional parks and recreation food concessions, healthcare facility food services, and statewide institutional food supply contracts. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Early County Board of Education), county parks and recreation divisions (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). Work involves vendor qualification based on food safety compliance, delivery reliability, product freshness guarantees, seasonal pricing adjustment, and adherence to Buy American preferences and domestic-sourcing emphasis where applicable.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southeast, with recent opportunities posted from Georgia, Florida (Collier County), and Marion County (Florida). Early County Board of Education in Georgia solicited line-by-line bids for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits with responses due June 8, 2026, under an IFB.
