UNSPSC 50542303: Frozen non GMO white heart breadfruit

The variety of non GMO breadfruit known as non GMO white heart breadfruit that has 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 50542303 Frozen non-GMO white heart breadfruit is a Commodity code that sits within a broader food-procurement landscape dominated by school district solicitations for fresh and frozen produce, breakfast and lunch items, and related food-service supplies—but recent state and local opportunities show little direct procurement activity tied specifically to this item. The recent contract opportunities under this code span grocery items, fresh produce, eggs, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs across multiple states, primarily driven by school district demand for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance. Issuing bodies are almost exclusively school districts and school systems, including the Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Early County Board of Education in Georgia, City Schools of Decatur in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and the Douglas County School System in Georgia serving 30 districts through the GEC Buying Cooperative. A single State of Georgia procurement also appears in the recent list, though detailed scope information is not available.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Georgia, which accounts for the majority of recent school-district food procurement notices, with secondary activity in Connecticut, Missouri, and an unnamed State of Georgia procurement. Representative recent opportunities include the Bridgeport Board of Education's IFB for over 1,100 line items of grocery items with electronic bids due June 30, 2026, the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with bids due June 26, 2026, and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026 and estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million combined across both geographic areas. Vendors typically must meet Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content), maintain HACCP plans with 24/7 recall accessibility, carry commercial general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, comply with E-Verify and federal debarment requirements, and deliver Monday through Friday with firm pricing for the contract period and no separate fuel surcharges permitted. Recent opportunities show no specific mentions of frozen white heart breadfruit procurement; the code appears to capture frozen non-GMO breadfruit as a potential commodity within broader school nutrition procurement, but actual bids under this specific item are not evident in the recent solicitation record.
