UNSPSC 50535357: Dried non GMO spring lady peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO spring lady 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 50535357 Dried non GMO spring lady peaches is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a single specialty dried-fruit product line, yet recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little direct alignment with that narrow scope. The opportunities posted against this code span broad food-service and nutrition programs rather than dried peach procurement specifically. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include school districts, county boards of education, state health agencies, and county commissions. The work being solicited reflects institutional food purchasing for National School Lunch Program compliance, senior meal preparation and delivery, and facility food service — a mix of breakfast and lunch items, fresh produce, packaged goods, and meal preparation services rather than dried fruit alone.

Recent opportunities appear across Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and Connecticut. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issued an RFP (BNB052266) on June 30, 2026, for over 1,100 line items of grocery items for the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, with Buy American Provision compliance and Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards required. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted an IFB (HHS0017449) due July 13, 2026, for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with a historical monetary value of $1.5 million for the prior 12-month period. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB due June 26, 2026, for over 200 line items of fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida solicited senior meal preparation and delivery services (ITB-26-00289) due June 25, 2026, with an estimated three-year contract value of $17.8 million. The code shows little direct activity for dried non-GMO peaches; recent procurement under this code reflects a mismatch between the nominal commodity and the actual institutional food-service scope being bought.
