UNSPSC 50621731: Non GMO gorham avocado purees

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO gorham avocados. 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 50621731 Non GMO gorham avocado purees (Commodity) covers fresh produce purees and specialty food ingredients sourced by state and local government food service operations. Recent state and local solicitations show that this code is activated almost exclusively by institutional food service procurement — state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county human services operations buying consumable foods and food service supplies. The scope in posted opportunities spans prepared foods, frozen items, canned goods, fresh produce, dairy products, condiments, and associated food service supplies (containers, napkins, serving trays) delivered to on-site canteen and cafeteria operations. Issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions, state departments of corrections, county boards of commissioners, school districts, and state agencies procuring for multiple facilities statewide. Texas agencies — particularly the Health and Human Services Commission and the Department of Criminal Justice — appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent opportunities.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with activity also visible in Oregon and Illinois. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers, with historical spend reaching $1.5 million annually and potential three-year contract values to $4.5 million. Gwinnett County, Georgia requested informal written quotes for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services (due October 19, 2026). Ben Hill County Schools in Georgia posted an IFB for comprehensive food products with Buy American requirements and delivery to four school locations (due June 15, 2026). Burke County Public Schools in Georgia solicited nearly 400 line items for school nutrition across five schools with firm fixed pricing and semi-annual adjustments tied to third-party market data (due June 5, 2026). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria foods and supplies to TDCJ warehouse locations across five Texas geographic areas (extended to May 4, 2026).
