UNSPSC 50601715: Frozen Non GMO booth 8 avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO booth 8 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 50601715 Frozen Non GMO booth 8 avocados is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it do not reflect frozen avocados or produce procurement. Instead, the code shows activity centered on shelf-stable food products — canned proteins, grains, pasta, sauces, and soups — procured by county governments, state agencies, and school districts for senior services, institutional feeding, and school meal programs. The work involves competitive bidding on lists of approved food items, often with "or equivalent" substitution permitted, delivery to a single site or multiple school locations, and award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on unit pricing. Issuing bodies include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (senior services), the State of Georgia (statewide institutional food supply), and Early County Board of Education (National School Lunch and School Breakfast Program support).

Recent opportunities span Georgia, with the most visible activity in the greater Atlanta and rural Georgia regions. Gwinnett County posted an informal written quote (IWQ) on October 13, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items with a response due October 19, 2026, F.O.B. destination to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville; the State of Georgia issued a food and kitchen products bid in May 2026 with a June 22, 2026 response date; and Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line food bids in May 2026 with a June 8, 2026 due date covering 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies for school meal programs across three schools with contract performance from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code shows activity but does not align with its nominal frozen-avocado scope — vendors pursuing opportunities under this code should verify current commodity alignment with issuing agencies before bid preparation.
