UNSPSC 50534955: Dried non GMO zee fire nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO zee fire 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 50534955 Dried non-GMO Zee Fire nectarines (Commodity) covers specialty dried fruit products, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little direct solicitation for the nectarines specified in the code name. Instead, the recent opportunities block captures a broader range of food and nutrition services that only tangentially align with dried fruit procurement — school nutrition programs, senior meal services, fresh produce contracts, and institutional food supply. The issuing bodies span school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Pascagoula-Gautier School District), county governments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia), and special-purpose institutional buyers (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center). None of the recent solicitations target dried nectarines as a line item or primary commodity.

The code shows minimal relevant activity across recent state and local procurement. Recent opportunities posted between April and June 2026 include the City of Bridgeport's June 30, 2026 IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items for school nutrition (spanning breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snacks, beverages, and meats); Hancock County Board of Education's June 26, 2026 IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items of apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, and tomatoes; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's July 13, 2026 IFB for food and consumables at $1.5 million historical value; Hillsborough County's June 25, 2026 ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery services valued at $17,832,659.90 over three years; and the Pascagoula-Gautier School District's April 29, 2026 IFB for packaged meal boxes. Dried specialty fruits do not appear as specified line items in any posting. The geographic spread includes Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and Connecticut, with activity concentrated in school nutrition and senior services rather than specialty dried fruit procurement. If this code is intended to capture dried nectarines, state and local buyers are not currently soliciting them through these channels.
