UNSPSC 50591773: Dried Non GMO tower avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO tower 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 50591773 Dried Non GMO Tower Avocados, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual purchasing activity in recent state and local procurement. The most recent solicitations tagged to this code span broad grocery and food service supply categories—school nutrition programs, senior meal preparation and delivery, institutional food service—but none of the representative opportunities identify dried avocados or any avocado products as a line item or focus area. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the source data or that dried non-GMO tower avocados, if procured by state and local bodies at all, represents negligible recent activity within this taxonomy.

The available recent opportunities under this code span school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools, Douglas County School System), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia), county governments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Douglas County), and municipalities (City of Dallas, City of Meriden). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Florida, Texas, Connecticut, Virginia, and Mississippi. Representative solicitations include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' IFB for grocery items to support the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services Department (response due June 30, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 13, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year (bids due June 26, 2026), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB for Master Grocery K-12 term contract (sealed bids due April 27, 2026). These procurements emphasize fresh produce, bulk grocery supply, USDA compliance, Buy American provisions, and school nutrition standards. The code shows no specific recent activity in dried avocado products and warrants close verification of scope alignment before pursuit.
