UNSPSC 50542707: Frozen non GMO mountain cranberries

The variety of non GMO cranberries known as non GMO mountaincranberries 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 50542707 Frozen non-GMO mountain cranberries (Commodity) does not appear in any recent state and local procurement activity. The nine most recent opportunities in the source block span school nutrition programs (breakfast and lunch), school board food service contracts, and fresh produce and grocery supply across multiple school districts and cities in Georgia, Connecticut, and Missouri, but none specifically solicit frozen non-GMO mountain cranberries or position that product as a line item or scope component. The opportunities instead name broad produce categories (apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, melons, specialty fruits), fresh eggs, frozen and shelf-stable groceries, meats, dairy, and snack items—categories that may incidentally include frozen berries but do not isolate or specify non-GMO mountain cranberries as a distinct procurement need.

The issuing bodies in the recent block are primarily K-12 school districts and boards of education (Bridgeport, Hancock County, Early County, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County, and Rockwood R-VI in Missouri), one city purchasing office (Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases), and one state procurement office (State of Georgia). Geographic concentration is evident in Georgia, with secondary activity in Connecticut and Missouri. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's grocery bid (RFQ, BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) spanning over 1,100 line items under Buy American requirements, the Hancock County Schools fresh-produce IFB (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026) covering over 200 produce items, and the Douglas County School System's fresh-produce and eggs RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative (PE64810NONST2026000000047, due March 4, 2026) serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One. No solicitation reviewed names frozen non-GMO mountain cranberries or treats that commodity as a procurement category.
