UNSPSC 50525366: Non GMO surecrop peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO surecrop 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 50525366 Non GMO surecrop peaches is a Commodity code that covers the sourcing and delivery of fresh peach produce to state and local institutions, particularly school nutrition programs and regional food service operations. State and local governments buy peaches under this code as part of broader fresh-produce procurement for K–12 school lunch and breakfast programs, food services at regional parks and recreational facilities, and institutional food operations such as health care coalition food service. Recent opportunities show that peaches are procured both as standalone line items and within larger produce contracts that span multiple fruit and vegetable varieties, with procurement emphasizing food safety compliance (HACCP documentation), quality assurance, and adherence to ripeness and sizing standards specified in school nutrition nutrition bid documents.

School districts across Georgia and Wisconsin dominate the recent solicitation activity under this code and related produce procurement. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posted a fresh-produce IFB in June 2026 spanning over 200 line items including multiple apple and berry varieties, requiring sealed bids due June 26, 2026, and the Bartow County School System in Georgia sought local fresh fruits and vegetables through an RFP due June 22, 2026. Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin posted an RFB for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks on July 8, 2026, with responses due July 29, 2026, requiring sourcing within Wisconsin and 400 miles of Madison and emphasizing traceability by farm of origin. Early County Board of Education in Georgia posted a line-by-line food bid in May 2026 due June 8, 2026, encompassing 300+ food items with an emphasis on domestic sourcing and whole-grain options. Beyond school districts, Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park in October 2026 with a response due March 6, 2025, applying a 10-point local-vendor preference, and Marion Health Care Coalition in Florida sought fresh produce proposals due August 21, 2026. The geographic concentration centers on Georgia and Florida school districts and regional authorities, with Wisconsin school nutrition activity also present in the recent pipeline.
