UNSPSC 50524917: Non GMO fairlane nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO fairlane 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 50524917 Non GMO fairlane nectarines is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, covers fresh produce procurement for food service operations across school districts, regional parks, healthcare facilities, and county government. The actual work being solicited under this code spans fresh fruit and vegetable supply and delivery to institutional food service programs, with vendors expected to meet quality standards, food safety compliance (HACCP plans), specific sizing and ripeness specifications, temperature control during transport, and flexible delivery schedules aligned to operational demand. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System posting multiple recent solicitations for fresh produce under related codes; regional park systems (Collier County Parks and Recreation) and specialized healthcare organizations (Marion Health Care Coalition) also procure under this general commodity family. The code sees recent activity across multiple states, with Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, and statewide procurement by the State of Georgia) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District) showing the highest concentration of recent opportunities.

Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, estimated annual value $78,000, bid due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (approximately 5,900 servings weekly, sourcing requirement within 400 miles and Wisconsin, bid due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, and specialty fruits, contract running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with bids due June 26, 2026; and Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, proposal deadline June 22, 2026. Evaluation criteria typically weight cost heavily (30–40 points), with secondary emphasis on vendor qualifications, delivery capability, food safety compliance, and local or diverse-owned business status (commonly 5–15 points). Buy American provisions and HACCP certification are standard requirements; most school district contracts run from July through June aligned to the school calendar.
