UNSPSC 50525347: Non GMO rich lady peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO rich lady 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 50525347 Non GMO rich lady peaches is a Commodity code that captures fresh fruit procurement by state and local governments, though recent solicitations under this code show significant scope divergence. The opportunities posted do not emphasize non-GMO or peach-specific sourcing; instead, they reflect school districts, county parks, healthcare coalitions, and other public bodies buying fresh produce under broad generic categories. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Madison Metropolitan School District and Hancock County Board of Education each posting multiple RFBs and RFQs for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, petite bananas, and mixed produce. Bartow County School System and Early County Board of Education in Georgia also solicited fresh produce for school nutrition programs. County parks and recreation departments appear as secondary buyers — Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park. Healthcare buyers are minimal in the recent sample; Marion Health Care Coalition posted one produce RFP. The code as currently described does not align well with actual procurement patterns, which center on commodity-grade mixed fresh fruits and vegetables for institutional food service rather than specialty peach varieties or non-GMO certification as differentiators.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin. Hancock County Schools, Bartow County School System, and Early County Board of Education are all Georgia-based and posted solicitations between May and June 2026. Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin issued two parallel RFBs in July 2026 for petite bananas (approximately $78,000 annual value, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026, contingent on USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program grant approval). Collier County in Florida issued an ITN for North Collier Regional Park food services (due March 6, 2025). The State of Georgia posted a broad food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026) with scope details in a separate attachment. Marion Health Care Coalition's produce RFP (due August 21, 2026) lacks explicit location information. Recent solicitations emphasize local-source preferences, Buy American domestic content, delivery logistics, HACCP compliance, and cost-weighted scoring; Wisconsin's Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Snacks RFB applied a $0.20 per pound organic preference discount. School district procurement windows cluster around late spring and summer, timed to contract periods beginning in July or September of the following school year.
