UNSPSC 50603510: Frozen Non GMO japanese eggplants

The variety of Non GMO eggplants known as Non GMO japanese eggplants 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 50603510 Frozen Non GMO Japanese Eggplants, a Commodity code, covers specialty frozen produce items sourced through state and local food-service procurement, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code remains minimal. State and local governments acquiring food for school lunch programs, senior services, and institutional food service do solicit frozen and fresh produce under related food-commodity codes, but the recent opportunities posted show little demand for frozen non-GMO Japanese eggplants specifically. Issuing bodies in this space include county boards of commissioners, state purchasing offices, and school district boards of education, each managing institutional food procurement through informal quotes (IWQ) and formal line-item bids tied to annual nutrition and food-service budgets.

Recent state and local activity in the Georgia market demonstrates the broader food-procurement environment: Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ 140229) on October 13, 2026, for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (response deadline October 19, 2026), while Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026, covering 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program (bids due June 8, 2026). The State of Georgia itself posted a separate food, supplies, and kitchen-products solicitation in May 2026. These opportunities emphasize domestic sourcing, USDA compliance, food-safety certifications, and competitive unit pricing with F.O.B. destination delivery and temperature-controlled logistics for perishables. The code shows little current activity specific to frozen Japanese eggplants in state and local procurement; vendors serving this market should monitor broader fresh and frozen-produce codes and school-district nutrition solicitations in Georgia, the Southeast, and states with large institutional food-service programs.
