UNSPSC 50601782: Frozen Non GMO zutano avocados

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO zutano 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 50601782 Frozen Non GMO zutano avocados is a Commodity code covering specialty frozen fruit products for institutional food service. The recent solicitations tagged to this code, however, show a material mismatch: the three posted opportunities span general shelf-stable food procurement (canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces), comprehensive school lunch program supply agreements (meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, grains), and county senior services food purchasing — none of which center on frozen avocados. The code classification appears misaligned with the actual scope of work being solicited, and the commodity itself generates minimal discrete procurement activity in the current state and local market.

The three recent opportunities originate from county, state, and school district issuing bodies in Georgia. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an informal written quote request (IWQ 140229) on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items across 35 line items with a response deadline of October 19, 2026; delivery is required to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 7, 2026, with awards made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder per unit of measure. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 response date, scope and pricing contained in an attached PDF. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line food bids on May 11, 2026 for school lunch and breakfast programs across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026; the contract period runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with extension and renewal options, requires Buy American compliance and $500,000 general liability insurance, and awards to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder approximately 60 days after opening.
