UNSPSC 50524902: Non GMO arctic mist nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO arctic mist nectarines. 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 50524902 Non GMO arctic mist nectarines is a Commodity code that covers fresh nectarines meeting non-GMO specifications, though the recent state and local opportunities in the source do not include solicitations for this specific product. Instead, the posting block shows school districts, health care coalitions, and county parks departments soliciting fresh produce more broadly — bananas, apples, berries, root vegetables, citrus, and mixed fresh fruits and vegetables — with the fresh-produce category spanning multiple UNSPSC codes. The code itself appears underutilized in the recent activity snapshot, with no posted RFB, RFP, IFB, or ITN naming arctic mist nectarines or equivalent specialty nectarines as a distinct line item.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix in the recent opportunities, including Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), and Bartow County School System (Georgia), alongside one county parks department (Collier County, Florida), one regional health care coalition (Marion Health Care Coalition), and one state-level procurement (State of Georgia). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Wisconsin; secondary activity appears in Florida. The representative solicitations show schools buying petite bananas via IFB (Madison, July 2026, $78,000 annual value), fresh fruit and vegetable snacks via RFB with 400-mile sourcing and organic-produce price preference (Madison, July 2026), fresh produce via IFB with 200+ line items and Buy American requirements (Hancock County, June 2026), and local fresh produce via RFP with 400-mile sourcing from farms (Bartow County, May 2026). No posted opportunity in the source names arctic mist nectarines or a comparable specialty nectarine variety as a solicited item, signaling limited current state and local demand for this specific product.
