UNSPSC 50534920: Dried non GMO fire sweet nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO fire sweet 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 50534920 Dried non-GMO fire sweet nectarines is a Commodity code that nominally names a single produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under it span broad food and consumable procurement across school nutrition programs, state facilities, and senior meal services—reflecting how jurisdictions often tag multi-line-item grocery and produce solicitations with individual commodity codes rather than broader family or class codes. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Pascagoula-Gautier School District), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and county governments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners). The scope of work includes fresh produce, packaged grocery items, meals prepared for nutrition programs, and consumable supplies for food service operations—all subject to National School Lunch Program compliance, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed products), Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act nutrition standards, and allergen restrictions. Vendors must meet HACCP certification, hold food service licensing, maintain specified insurance coverage, and accept ordering through school nutrition software systems such as LINQ School Solutions.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with posted opportunities from Connecticut (City of Bridgeport, June 2026), Georgia (State of Georgia, May 2026; Hancock County, June 2026), Mississippi (Pascagoula-Gautier School District, April 2026), Texas (Health and Human Services Commission El Paso State Supported Living Center, June 2026), and Florida (Hillsborough County, June 2026). Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items for school meals (due June 30, 2026) with firm fixed pricing and 48-hour emergency stock availability requirements; Texas HHSC's IFB for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026) with a prior-period value of $1.5 million and CPI adjustment provisions; and Hillsborough County's ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery services across congregate and home-delivery channels (due June 25, 2026) valued at $17.8 million over three years. Most solicitations specify firm fixed pricing with no fuel or freight surcharges permitted, Net 30 to Net 45 payment terms, and delivery to multiple school or facility sites on standard pallets with one-for-one exchange logistics.
