UNSPSC 50591750: Dried Non GMO melendez avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO melendez avocados that have been dried for preservation. 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 50591750 Dried Non GMO melendez avocados is a Commodity code. State and local governments do not currently buy dried melendez avocados through public procurement; the recent opportunity data shows no relevant solicitations. The code appears misaligned with actual state and local food service purchasing, which centers on fresh produce, bulk groceries, and prepared meals for schools, senior programs, and municipal operations rather than specialty dried fruits.

The source records thirteen recent state and local food service solicitations across school districts, county boards, state agencies, and municipal governments, spanning school nutrition programs (Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Meriden Public Schools, Pascagoula-Gautier School District, Hancock County Schools, Douglas County Schools), senior meal delivery (Hillsborough County, Florida), a state supported living center (Texas HHSC El Paso), and municipal catering (City of Dallas), issued between January and June 2026. None reference dried avocados or specialty produce items. The actual procurement activity under related food codes concentrates on fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, citrus), staple groceries (proteins, dairy, grains, condiments), and meal preparation and delivery services, with contract values ranging from approximately $1.5 million (Texas HHSC) to $17.8 million (Hillsborough County senior meals) over one to three years. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, Mississippi, and Virginia. Buyers include state education and health departments, county school systems, county commissions, and municipal purchasing offices. This code does not reflect current state and local procurement demand.
