UNSPSC 50601707: Frozen Non GMO biondo avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO biondo avocados that have been frozen 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 50601707 Frozen Non GMO biondo avocados (Commodity) describes a narrowly specified product line — frozen non-GMO biondo avocados — yet recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show little activity aligned with that nominal scope. The three most recent opportunities posted under this code between May and October 2026 solicit broad food purchases: shelf-stable staples (canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces), food service supplies for school lunch programs, and kitchen products for state agency use. None of these solicitations specifically reference frozen biondo avocados or frozen produce at all. The issuing bodies are a county board of commissioners (Gwinnett County, Georgia), a state purchasing office (State of Georgia), and a school district board of education (Early County Board of Education, Georgia). The code shows mismatch between its nominal commodity definition and the actual procurement activity reported under it.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia, with all three recent opportunities originating from Gwinnett County, the State of Georgia, and Early County Schools. Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's October 2026 IWQ 140229 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, canned vegetables) with quotes due October 19, 2026, and Early County Board of Education's June 2026 line-by-line bid for 300+ food items (meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains) plus non-food supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with bids due June 8, 2026. Neither opportunity involves frozen avocados or frozen produce categories. Vendors pursuing this code should verify the actual commodity scope required by issuing bodies before proposal development, as the tagging appears misaligned with the code's stated product.
