UNSPSC 50534948: Dried non GMO spring red nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO spring red 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 50534948 Dried non-GMO spring red nectarines (Commodity) does not reflect actual state and local procurement activity—the recent solicitation records tagged to this code encompass broad grocery, fresh produce, meal preparation, and food service distribution across school districts, county governments, and state agencies, with no recorded procurement of dried nectarines specifically. The code's nominal scope targets a narrow specialty dried fruit product; the tagged opportunities span full-line food service, fresh produce contracts, boxed meal delivery, school nutrition programs, and senior meal services that fall well outside the commodity definition. State and local issuers applying this code appear to be misfiling general food and produce procurement activity, suggesting either inconsistent taxonomy application or a significant mismatch between the code's intended use and the work state and local buyers are actually tagging under it.

The tagged opportunities show school nutrition programs (Bridgeport Public Schools, Meriden Public Schools, Hancock County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County Schools, Bulloch County Schools, and Pascagoula-Gautier School District) and state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia) issuing IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce, master grocery supply, and meal services between January and June 2026. Representative recent work includes Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in Georgia (due February 18, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 contract (due April 27, 2026), Meriden Public Schools grocery and USDA Foods RFP (due February 25, 2026, valued at approximately $3.1 million), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners senior meal preparation and delivery services over three years (due June 25, 2026, valued at $17.8 million). Geographic activity centers on Georgia, Connecticut, Virginia, Florida, Texas, and Mississippi, with no recorded opportunities for dried nectarines as a line item. The structural disconnect between the code's definition and the actual procurement records suggests that this code should not be used as a reliable signal for business development targeting; confirm coding with issuing bodies before pursuing.
