UNSPSC 50601709: Frozen Non GMO blair avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO blair 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 50601709 Frozen Non GMO blair avocados is a Commodity code that reflects state and local procurement of shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional dining, senior services, and school meal programs. Recent opportunities under this code show that state and local governments are buying general food supplies — canned proteins, vegetables, grains, dairy, meats, poultry, and specialty items — rather than frozen avocados specifically. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code span county government purchasing offices, state departments, and school district food service programs. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the State of Georgia, and Early County Board of Education have posted opportunities in the past six months, with county and school district food procurement appearing more frequently than state-level solicitations.

Georgia dominates the recent activity, with Gwinnett County and Early County Schools posting IFQ and line-by-line bid requests in the past six months. Gwinnett County posted an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, and pasta, with quotes due October 19, 2026 and delivery required by December 7, 2026 to Gwinnett Senior Services Center. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line bid on May 11, 2026 for 300-plus food items and 60 non-food and paper products to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026; the contract runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with options to extend. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 due date. Award is typically made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a per-unit-of-measure basis, with vendors required to meet food safety compliance, liability insurance, and domestic sourcing preferences where applicable.
