UNSPSC 50601751: Frozen Non GMO meya p avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO meya p 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 50601751 Frozen Non GMO meya p avocados is a Commodity code that nominally designates a specific produce item, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevance to frozen avocados. Instead, the code appears to capture broad food-procurement solicitations spanning shelf-stable staples, fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and prepared items. State and local purchasing officers tag these notices with this code despite the nominal product specificity, suggesting either data-entry drift or a catch-all practice within individual procurement offices. The issuing bodies include county purchasing divisions, state departments, and school districts; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners and the State of Georgia appear in the recent record, alongside Early County Board of Education, indicating a mix of general administration, state-level operations, and K–12 food-service acquisition.

Georgia dominates the recent activity, with three posted opportunities spanning May and October 2026. Gwinnett County requested an IFQ (informal written quote) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items—peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables—due October 19, 2026, with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid on May 15, 2026 due June 22, 2026, with scope details in an attached solicitation document. Early County Board of Education issued a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300+ food items, 60+ non-food and paper supplies, and fluid milk to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain mandates, low-sodium formulations, and HACCP compliance required. Award timelines typically run 60 days post-opening; prices remain firm for 15 days and escalate or de-escalate thereafter on a six-month basis supported by USDA or CPI data.
