UNSPSC 50541625: Frozen non GMO jordanne apricots

The variety of non GMO apricots known as non GMO jordanne apricots that have been frozen 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 50541625 Frozen non-GMO Jordanne apricots (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The source contains five opportunities posted between May and October 2026, none of which solicits frozen apricots or specialty frozen fruits. Instead, the tagged opportunities span broad food procurement for school nutrition programs, senior services, and general municipal food supply — including shelf-stable staples (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta), fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables), dairy, meat, and breakfast items. The code's nominal scope does not match what state and local governments are actually buying under this UNSPSC designation.

The issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, Early County Board of Education in Georgia), county government (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners in Georgia), and state procurement (State of Georgia). Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County's October 2026 IWQ requesting approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026; Bridgeport Board of Education's June 2026 RFB for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the National School Lunch Program due June 30, 2026; and Hancock County Schools' June 2026 IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items due June 26, 2026. The geographic concentration is Georgia and Connecticut. Given the mismatch between the commodity code name and the actual procurement scope, this code shows little relevant activity for vendors specializing in frozen non-GMO apricots.
