UNSPSC 50621782: Non GMO zutano avocado purees

The variety of Non GMO avocados known as Non GMO zutano 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 50621782 Non GMO zutano avocado purees, a Commodity code, has generated minimal relevant recent procurement activity among state and local governments. The recent opportunities posted under this code show no solicitations for avocado purees specifically; instead, the tagged opportunities request general food and consumable products for schools, correctional facilities, and state health agencies. The code's nominal scope—specialty produce or processed fruit products—does not match the actual buying pattern in the dataset, which centers on broad-based food service contracting covering proteins, dairy, grains, produce, and supplies rather than individual ingredient items like specialty avocado products. State and local buyers across the timeframe (January–June 2026) have not issued standalone procurements for non-GMO avocado purees or similar specialized agricultural inputs.

The issuing bodies in the broader food-service ecosystem where this code might apply include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Burke County and Liberty County schools, Georgia; Rockwood R-VI, Missouri; Ben Hill County, Georgia; Douglas County, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County, Georgia), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Georgia), and a state-supported living center (El Paso, Texas). Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Virginia, and Missouri, driven primarily by school nutrition procurement. However, none of these opportunities explicitly solicit avocado purees or non-GMO specialty produce items as line-item purchases; they instead use cooperative purchasing vehicles and general food-service IFBs, RFQs, and RFPs that allow vendors to propose equivalent or substitute products within broader categories. Vendors pursuing this code should recognize that opportunities at this tier are likely bundled into larger master grocery or food-service contracts rather than issued as commodity-specific solicitations.
