UNSPSC 50525326: Non GMO flavorcrest peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO flavorcrest 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 50525326 Non GMO flavorcrest peaches is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh peach procurement by state and local food-service operators, school districts, and healthcare entities. The recent solicitations under this code show that state and local governments are buying fresh produce — primarily peaches and a broad range of other fruits and vegetables — for school nutrition programs, park concessions, healthcare facilities, and regional food services. The work involves sourcing and delivering fresh produce to meet volume and quality specifications, often with constraints on ripeness stage, color, size, farm of origin, and distance (typically within 400 miles of the purchaser). Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education), county governments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), and specialized purchasers such as the Marion Health Care Coalition. School districts and county park systems dominate recent activity; multiple districts are procuring fresh fruit and vegetables concurrently for the 2026–2027 school year.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida. Madison Metropolitan School District issued separate bids for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026), with the latter requiring Wisconsin-sourced produce within 400 miles and offering a 5% diverse-owned business preference. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited bids on over 200 line items of fresh produce (IFB #SN002-2027, bids due June 26, 2026) for delivery to three school sites July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Bartow County School System in Georgia requested local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (RFP 10-2026-019, due June 22, 2026) with contract award anticipated July 20, 2026.
