UNSPSC 50525359: Non GMO springcrest peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO springcrest 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 50525359 Non GMO springcrest peaches, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope specifies a single peach variety, yet the most-recent-opportunities block contains no solicitations for springcrest peaches or peaches of any kind. Instead, the block documents 18 fresh produce procurement opportunities from school districts, counties, and a state agency across Georgia and Texas, spanning the period from February through July 2026. These opportunities solicit comprehensive fresh produce portfolios—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, leafy greens, citrus fruits, potatoes, and other commodity groups—but springcrest peaches do not appear in any specification sheet, bid table, or line-item detail provided in the source. The mismatch between the code's narrowly defined commodity and the broad, generic produce procurements documented in the opportunities block indicates either a data-tagging error or minimal institutional demand for this specific peach variety through formal state and local competitive procurement channels.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, including Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bartow County Schools (Georgia), Early County Schools (Georgia), Bulloch County Schools (Georgia), Liberty County Schools (Georgia), Muscogee County Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Schools (Georgia), Glynn County Schools (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas); the Douglas County School System (Georgia) also solicited on behalf of a 30-district cooperative. The State of Georgia posted a broad food-supplies opportunity without detailed scope. Opportunities cluster in Georgia and Texas; Wisconsin appears in one notice. Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, $78,000 annual contract value) and Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26039RFPDST for fresh fruit and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (proposals due March 11, 2026, estimated annual budget $600,000). Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, domestic sourcing preferences, and local-grow requirements appear across most opportunities. The absence of springcrest peaches from any documented opportunity suggests the code warrants close scrutiny before allocation of pursuit resources.
