UNSPSC 50534910: Dried non GMO autumn star nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO autumn star nectarines that have been dried for preservation. 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 50534910 Dried non-GMO autumn star nectarines is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific product scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect broad food procurement for school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food supply rather than dried fruit sourcing. State and local buyers issuing under this code span school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools, Douglas County School System), county commissioners (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners), municipalities (City of Dallas), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia), and special school nutrition purchasing cooperatives. The issuing bodies tend to aggregate food procurement across comprehensive categories—groceries, fresh produce, prepared meals, and supplies—rather than sourcing specific dried fruit items as standalone line items.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia (multiple school districts and state procurement), Florida (Hillsborough County), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools), Texas (Dallas and HHSC El Paso), Mississippi (Pascagoula-Gautier School District), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). Recent opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery procurement (IFB, due June 30, 2026) spanning 1,100+ line items; Hancock County Board of Education fresh produce bid (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) covering 200+ produce items; and the Douglas County School System's food supply and distribution RFP (due February 18, 2026) supporting 32 schools with approximately $9 million annual spend. Hillsborough County's senior meal delivery services (ITB-26-00289, due June 25, 2026) carries an estimated three-year value of $17.8 million but addresses prepared meals rather than commodity ingredients. The code appears to be applied generically to broad food service procurement rather than targeting dried nectarines specifically; vendors pursuing this code should treat it as an entry point to institutional food supply opportunities but should expect to compete across full grocery or produce categories rather than single-item SKU markets.
