UNSPSC 50534936: Dried non GMO red gold nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO red gold 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 50534936 Dried non-GMO red gold nectarines, a Commodity code, sees minimal direct procurement activity in state and local contracting; recent opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect purchases of dried nectarines specifically. The code's nominal scope addresses a single dried fruit product line, yet the recent opportunities in the dataset are instead heavily weighted toward fresh produce procurement, comprehensive grocery and food-service supply contracts, and meal preparation services spanning school districts, county health agencies, and municipal food service operations. When state and local buyers do solicit fresh and processed fruits for school nutrition programs, they typically bundle them within broader food-supply RFPs, RFQs, or IFBs that encompass dozens or hundreds of line items across multiple produce categories, dairy, proteins, and pantry staples.

State and local issuers pursuing food-service procurement are predominantly school districts and school boards across Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia, along with county commissioners' offices and city purchasing departments managing senior meal programs and institutional food service. The recent contract opportunities show no isolated solicitations for dried nectarines; instead, buyers issue comprehensive grocery bids (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools) and fresh-produce-focused contracts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 covering 30 districts) that list dozens of fresh produce line items including apples, berries, citrus, leafy greens, and root vegetables. When dried or processed fruit appears, it typically occupies a minor line-item position within a larger multi-category supply contract. The window shows no standalone dried-nectarine procurement activity, suggesting the code represents a specialized commodity with limited state and local procurement volume or that buyers do not isolate this product in their UNSPSC tagging.
