UNSPSC 50526221: Non GMO snowpeaks raspberry

The variety of non GMO raspberry known as non GMO snowpeaks raspberry. 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 50526221 Non GMO snowpeaks raspberry is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code's name references a specific fresh raspberry variety, but the most recent opportunities in the dataset are dominated by broader school nutrition procurement for fresh produce, fruits, vegetables, and eggs rather than specialty non-GMO raspberry products. Madison Metropolitan School District posted solicitations for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026), neither of which targets the specialty raspberry category. The school districts and county education systems dominating the procurement landscape—Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and Douglas County in Georgia; McAllen and Austin Independent School Districts in Texas; and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida—are soliciting produce through IFBs, RFPs, and RFBs that emphasize volume commodity procurement tied to the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, National School Lunch Program, and School Breakfast Program funding.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia (Hancock, Bartow, Bulloch, Liberty, Muscogee, Glynn, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County school systems) and scattered activity in Florida, Texas, and Wisconsin, reflecting school nutrition seasonal cycles and federal child nutrition grant cycles rather than specialty produce sourcing. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) spanning over 200 line items of apples, berries, vegetables, and citrus; Bulloch County School District's IFP for locally grown produce within 200 miles (due May 4, 2026); and Douglas County School System's RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 72 produce and egg line items for 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026). The code shows no documented recent state or local solicitation for non-GMO snowpeaks raspberries specifically; vendors pursuing this code should expect demand primarily through specialty or institutional channels outside standard school nutrition procurement, or should monitor for future farm-to-school and local procurement initiatives that may designate specific berry varieties or non-GMO certifications as evaluation criteria.
