UNSPSC 50524937: Non GMO red jim nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO red jim 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 50524937 Non GMO red jim nectarines, a Commodity code, describes fresh fruit procurement by state and local governments, though the recent opportunities block shows little sourcing specifically for nectarines. Instead, state and local buyers are procuring fresh produce broadly — including bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and mixed fresh fruits and vegetables — through school districts, county parks departments, healthcare coalitions, and county education boards. The work involves sourcing fresh produce meeting quality, food-safety, and ripeness specifications; compliance with HACCP plans and traceability documentation; delivery to multiple designated sites on tight schedules (often early morning windows); and adherence to Buy American provisions, domestic-content requirements, or local-sourcing preferences where applicable. Issuing bodies include school nutrition programs (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 coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia).

The most recent activity spans Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. Representative opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's IFB for petite bananas due July 29, 2026, projecting $78,000 annual value for 70–90 weekly cases delivered to a single facility; Madison Metropolitan's RFB for Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Snacks due July 29, 2026, requiring produce sourced within 400 miles of Madison and delivered in ready-to-eat, pre-packaged form; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items across multiple varieties, due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites; and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables due June 22, 2026, requiring sources within 400 miles and flexible monthly ordering. Collier County's ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park, posted October 8, 2026, due March 6, 2025, applies a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points. Geographic preferences, 400-mile sourcing limits, and diverse-business scoring appear across multiple districts. The code shows no standout repeat buyers; rather, activity is distributed across multiple school districts and county agencies. Nectarines specifically do not appear in the recent opportunities; the broader code captures commodity fresh-fruit and vegetable procurement where state and local governments buy produce by specification, volume, and seasonal availability.
