UNSPSC 50535348: Dried non GMO rich may peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO rich may 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 50535348 Dried non-GMO rich may peaches, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations for dried peaches or comparable dried fruit products; instead, the tagged opportunities overwhelmingly reflect fresh produce, comprehensive grocery and food service supply contracts, and meal preparation and delivery services across school districts, county nutrition programs, state agencies, and municipal food service operations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being procured suggests either a classification error in the source data or minimal recent demand for this specific commodity at the state and local level.

School districts and county education boards dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools, and Douglas County School System all posting multi-line-item grocery or produce solicitations in recent months. State-level buyers appear less frequently—the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the State of Georgia each issued one solicitation. A single county government (Hillsborough County, Florida) solicited senior meal preparation and delivery services, and the City of Dallas issued a boxed meal delivery RFP. Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, and Mississippi, with the largest procurements originating in Georgia school districts. Representative opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education's electronic bid for 1,100+ line items of grocery products due June 30, 2026 (IFB/electronic submission); the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated spending of $5.5 million, proposals due March 4, 2026; and Fairfax County Public Schools' sealed-bid solicitation for a master grocery K-12 contract serving 45 schools, due April 27, 2026. None of these procurements target dried peaches as a line item, and no recent state or local buyer has tagged an opportunity with this code.
