UNSPSC 50525308: Non GMO cary mac peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO cary mac peaches. 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 50525308 Non GMO Cary Mac Peaches, a Commodity code, is used by state and local education and food-service agencies to procure fresh peaches and comparable fresh-fruit items for school nutrition programs, regional parks, and health-care food operations. The code's recent activity reflects broader procurement of fresh produce across school districts and public food-service entities. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education), county parks and recreation departments (Collier County), and health-care coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition). The work solicited includes procurement of fresh fruits—including peaches, bananas, berries, and specialty items—for school meal programs funded by USDA child nutrition appropriations, park concession operations, and institutional food service, with emphasis on compliance with food-safety regulations (HACCP plans), product freshness guarantees, traceability by farm of origin, and adherence to Buy American or local-sourcing preferences where applicable.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. Representative opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual contract value, response due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison (5,900 servings weekly, response due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items (response due June 26, 2026, serving three school locations July 2026 through June 2027); Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles (response due June 22, 2026); Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (response due June 8, 2026); and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (response due March 6, 2025, with local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points). School district RFBs typically weight cost at 40 percent and require product traceability, HACCP plans, and insurance at $500,000 to $1,000,000.
