UNSPSC 50591754: Dried Non GMO murrieta green avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO murrieta green 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 50591754 Dried Non GMO Murrieta Green Avocados, a Commodity code, nominally describes a single produce item, but state and local governments procure under this code as part of broad food service and nutrition contracting. The recent activity under this code shows school districts, county boards of education, state health agencies, and county social services departments soliciting produce, grocery staples, and meal-service items to support child nutrition programs, senior meal services, and state facility food service operations. The work spans fresh and processed produce procurement, full-line grocery supply contracts supporting school lunch programs, meal preparation and delivery services for vulnerable populations, and consumable food products for institutional dining. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi), city education departments (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases on behalf of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and county social services boards (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida). Most solicitations require compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed products), HACCP food safety plans, nutritional standards including the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act, and blind product testing or laboratory verification.

Geographic activity clusters in the South and Mid-Atlantic, with recent opportunities posted from Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi.
