UNSPSC 50535353: Dried non GMO sierra gem peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO sierra gem 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 50535353 Dried non GMO sierra gem peaches is a Commodity code representing a single dried fruit product line. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent volume: recent solicitations tagged with this code predominantly solicit broader grocery, fresh produce, and food service categories rather than dried peaches specifically. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued Bid BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items including fruits for the Bridgeport Board of Education (response due June 30, 2026), and the Douglas County School System issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 Georgia school districts (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission Procurement and Contracting Services issued IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center (proposals due July 11, 2026). Hancock County Board of Education solicited fresh produce under IFB #SN002-2027 (bids due June 26, 2026), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB-26-00289 for senior meal preparation and delivery services (bids due June 25, 2026). These opportunities span school districts, county boards of education, state health and human services agencies, and county government food service programs across Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, and Florida.

The code shows concentrated recent activity in school nutrition procurement across Georgia and Florida, with secondary activity in Connecticut and Texas. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with a secondary presence from county governments and state health agencies. Representative recent solicitations include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 bid (IFB 2000004323, sealed bids due April 27, 2026, covering delivery to 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens); Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for fresh produce serving 60 school sites (sealed bids due April 23, 2026); Bulloch County Board of Education's IFB #043025 for comprehensive food products and supplies across 14 school delivery sites (bid submission closing May 4, 2026); and City of Meriden Purchasing Department's RFP 026-41 for commercial groceries and USDA Foods serving 8,200 students across 13 Connecticut school sites with an anticipated contract value of approximately $3,100,000 (proposals due February 25, 2026). However, none of these recent opportunities explicitly identifies dried non-GMO sierra gem peaches as a line item; the code's nominal scope and actual buying activity show material divergence, suggesting that state and local governments rarely solicit this specific product independently or that procurement offices have tagged broader grocery and produce contracts with this narrow commodity code.
