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 (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity in the source block. The recent opportunities posted under this code all solicit fresh produce and eggs — bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, citrus fruits, and eggs — but peaches, whether GMO or non-GMO, surecrop or standard varieties, appear in none of them. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the specific commodity it nominally covers.

School districts and county boards of education across Georgia, Texas, and Florida are the dominant buyers in the recent-opportunities block, soliciting fresh produce through RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB notices for school nutrition programs serving elementary through high school students. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bartow County School System (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have all posted solicitations since late February 2026. Activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary presence in Florida and Wisconsin. Contracts typically run one year (July 1 through June 30) with options to renew for additional one-year terms, annual spending ranging from approximately $600,000 to $4.4 million depending on district size, and awards made on a lowest-responsive-and-responsible-bidder or lowest-qualified-pricing basis, often on a line-item basis to allow multiple vendors. Vendors must maintain HACCP plans, carry minimum liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, comply with Buy American provisions requiring domestic commodities or at least 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed foods, and meet E-Verify and debarment certification requirements. No set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly noted in the recent solicitations.
