UNSPSC 50601732: Frozen Non GMO gossman avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO gossman 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 50601732 Frozen Non GMO Gossman Avocados (Commodity) describes a specialized frozen produce line that state and local governments buy primarily for institutional food service — senior centers, schools, and other public facilities serving meal programs. The recent solicitations under this code, however, show little direct demand for frozen avocados specifically. Gwinnett County's October 2026 purchase focused on shelf-stable items like canned proteins, rice, pasta, and sauces for senior services; the State of Georgia's May 2026 food solicitation covered general food, supplies, and kitchen products without itemized detail in the posted notice; and Early County Schools' June 2026 bid emphasized fresh and frozen proteins, dairy, produce, and USDA-compliant bread and milk for National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs. None of these opportunities explicitly name frozen avocados as a line item. State and local purchasing under this code appears to originate from county departments of community services, state procurement offices, and independent school districts supporting institutional nutrition programs.

The recent activity concentrates in Georgia, with Gwinnett County (suburban Atlanta), the State of Georgia procurement office, and Early County Schools all posting solicitations between May and October 2026. Gwinnett County's informal written quote (IWQ) for approximately 1,062 cases of food items closed October 19, 2026, with delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center. The State of Georgia issued an IFB on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 response date for food and supplies, with full scope details in an attached PDF. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids due June 8, 2026 for 300+ food items and 60 non-food products supporting school meal programs, with contract performance running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code shows limited recent activity with direct relevance to frozen avocados; opportunities under this classification appear to be tagged broadly to food procurement categories rather than reflecting specific produce-line demand.
