UNSPSC 50535311: Dried non GMO crest haven peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO crest haven peaches 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 50535311 Dried non GMO crest haven peaches is a Commodity code that nominally names a single produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code show little relevance to the category name. The five most recent postings—spanning school districts, county boards of education, state health agencies, and a county government—solicit broadly for grocery items, fresh produce, food and consumables, senior meal services, and packaged meal boxes, not dried peaches specifically. The Bridgeport Board of Education IFB for grocery items (June 2026) covers over 1,100 line items across breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snacks, beverages, and meat products; the Hancock County Schools IFB for fresh produce (June 2026) spans over 200 line items including apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, citrus, and leafy greens; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB for food and consumables (June 2026) covers broad food service and supply categories under NIGP Class/Item numbers 385, 390, 380, and 393. The issuing bodies are predominantly school nutrition departments, state health and human services agencies, and county boards seeking to meet National School Lunch Program and child nutrition requirements.

Recent opportunities show activity in Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi. The Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) posted an RFQ for 1,100+ grocery line items due June 30, 2026, requiring compliance with Buy American Provision (51% domestic agricultural ingredients), Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards, and delivery Monday–Friday to school sites on a firm fixed-price basis through July 2027. The Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) posted an IFB for 200+ fresh produce items with delivery to three school locations, pricing firm through June 2027, and lowest-responsive-and-responsible award. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) posted an ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery services estimated at $17.8 million over three years, requiring licensed caterers on the Florida Department of Elderly Affairs Adult Care Food Program list. The code shows no recent activity specifically for dried peaches or specialty dried-fruit procurement; state and local buyers under this code are acquiring broad food and meal-service portfolios to meet school nutrition, senior services, and facility food operations rather than individual commodity items.
