UNSPSC 50534917: Dried non GMO fairlane nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO fairlane 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 50534917 Dried non-GMO fairlane nectarines is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single dried fruit product, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little alignment with that narrow scope. Instead, the code appears in broad grocery and food-service solicitations spanning hundreds of line items — breakfast cereals, frozen products, condiments, fresh produce, meal boxes, and prepared senior meals — suggesting either systematic misclassification or use of the code as a catch-all for food procurement. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Pascagoula-Gautier School District) and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida), reflecting the core market for institutional food service. Work solicited includes fresh produce delivery to school cafeterias, complete grocery supply for National School Lunch Program compliance, prepared senior meals with CPI-indexed pricing, and summer meal-box programs serving eligible low-income populations.

Recent activity spans Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued IFB BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026) for over 1,100 line-item grocery items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, with 51 percent domestic-content Buy American requirements, LINQ School Solutions ordering integration, and Net 45 payment terms. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) for food and consumable products serving the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a historical annual value of $1.5 million and CPI-indexed price adjustments. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce under IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) spanning 200+ line items of apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, and specialty items for delivery to three school sites. Hillsborough County in Florida issued ITB 26-00289 (due June 25, 2026) for senior meal preparation and delivery services worth $17,832,659.90 over three years, requiring Florida-licensed caterers and HACCP certification. The code shows no recent opportunities directly matching dried nectarines.
