UNSPSC 50621745: Non GMO lisa loretta avocado purees

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO lisa loretta 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 50621745 Non GMO lisa loretta avocado purees (Commodity) covers specialized food products for institutional food service, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows virtually no match to the nominal commodity description. The opportunities tagged with this code span general food and grocery procurement across school districts, corrections departments, health and human services facilities, and veterans homes—purchasing canned tomatoes, fresh produce, eggs, bread, proteins, dairy, and broad-line food service supplies rather than avocado purees specifically. Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Veterans Home, State of Georgia), county and municipal school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Douglas County School System, Georgia; Burke County Public Schools, Georgia; Ben Hill County Schools, Georgia; Liberty County Board of Education, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District, Missouri; Muscogee County School District, Georgia), and specialized state facilities. School nutrition programs dominate the recent solicitation activity, with districts procuring annual grocery and produce contracts to serve 6,900 to 32,000 meals daily across multiple school sites.

Geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Oregon, Missouri, Virginia, and Illinois. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 13, 2026, estimated prior value $1.5 million), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic distribution areas (response due May 4, 2026, extended from April 21), the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016405 for canned tomatoes (bid response due April 6, 2026, for 7,616 cases), and Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 delivery to 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens (sealed bids due April 27, 2026). School districts routinely issue annual food and produce bids with contract periods July 1 through June 30 and award values ranging from estimated $1.1 million to $9 million. The code shows active, recurring procurement volume but appears misaligned with its stated commodity name—recent opportunities reflect broad institutional food service supply, not avocado purees.
