UNSPSC 50524931: Non GMO may diamond nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO may diamond 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 50524931 Non GMO May diamond nectarines is a Commodity code that covers fresh nectarine supply to state and local food-service operations, primarily school districts and regional parks. State and local governments buy this produce through food-service procurement channels that emphasize fresh-fruit supply to institutional cafeterias, concession operations, and nutrition programs. The code sees activity from school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bartow County School System), county parks and recreation departments (Collier County), healthcare-affiliated organizations (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). Solicitations focus on fresh produce meeting USDA nutrition standards, delivery to multiple school or institutional sites, HACCP compliance, temperature and quality controls, and often include local-sourcing or diverse-vendor preferences.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin. Madison Metropolitan School District issued separate RFBs in July 2026 for petite bananas ($78,000 annual contract value, weekly usage 70–90 cases, delivery to Food Production Center Monday–Friday, ripeness stages 3.5–4.5 per Chiquita color guide, bids due July 29) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (5,900 servings weekly for elementary students, sourced within 400 miles of Madison and within Wisconsin, ready-to-eat delivery required, bids due July 29). Hancock County Board of Education issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year with a sealed-bid deadline of June 26, 2026, delivery to three school sites, and a Buy American provision requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content. Bartow County School System issued an RFP on May 21, 2026 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, with proposals due June 22 and contract award anticipated July 20. Collier County Parks and Recreation issued an ITN on October 8, 2026 for food-service operations at North Collier Regional Park with a March 6, 2025 response date and a 10-point local-vendor preference. The code shows no recent opportunities specifically tagged to May diamond nectarines; the broader fresh-produce solicitations above suggest the code sits within larger institutional fresh-fruit procurement categories where nectarines may be specified as line items rather than sole-source procurement vehicles.
