UNSPSC 50525323: Non GMO fire prince peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO fire prince 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 50525323 Non GMO fire prince peaches, a Commodity code, represents fresh peach procurement by state and local education and food-service agencies. In practice, state and local buyers solicit peaches and other fresh produce as line items within broader food-service and nutrition contracts rather than as standalone commodities. The work involves supplying fresh fruits and vegetables—often sourced under specific production standards, ripeness specifications, and traceability requirements—to school nutrition programs, regional parks, healthcare coalitions, and county food-service operations. Peaches typically appear as one item among 200+ produce line items in school district RFBs and IFBs, and buyers frequently impose sourcing constraints (local or domestic content requirements, organic certification eligibility, non-GMO preferences) and quality controls (HACCP plans, farm-of-origin documentation, temperature and fill-rate guarantees). Issuing bodies include school districts (the dominant buyer group), county boards of education, county parks and recreation departments, and healthcare coalitions. School districts dominate the code's recent activity and set evaluation criteria heavily weighted toward cost, vendor experience, and food-safety compliance.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) solicited petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks in July 2026 via separate RFBs due July 29, 2026, with the fresh-produce RFB requiring Wisconsin sourcing within 400 miles and offering a 5% preference for diverse-owned business certification. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for over 200 fresh-produce line items due June 26, 2026, with contract running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and Buy American domestic-content requirements. Bartow County School System (Georgia) sought local fresh fruits and vegetables via RFP 10-2026-019 due June 22, 2026, requiring sourcing from farms within 400 miles and contract running July 20, 2026 through June 30, 2027.
