UNSPSC 50544920: Frozen non GMO fire sweet nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO fire sweet nectarines 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 50544920 Frozen non-GMO fire sweet nectarines is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific scope. The one recent opportunity posted under this code—the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' grocery items solicitation for the Bridgeport Board of Education (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026)—encompasses over 1,100 line items spanning breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snacks, beverages, and meats, rather than frozen non-GMO fire sweet nectarines specifically. The same solicitation requires Buy American compliance with at least 51 percent domestic agricultural ingredients, adherence to Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act nutrition standards, blind testing of samples by school personnel and laboratory technicians at vendor expense, and delivery Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to the central warehouse and designated school sites on standard pallets with freight prepaid and one-for-one exchange. Vendors must accept orders through the LINQ School Solutions ordering system, maintain backup stock for 24-hour emergency delivery, carry $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate commercial general liability and products liability insurance, and provide USDA compliance statements, Connecticut Secretary of State registration, complete nutritional analyses, and three professional references.

State and local procurement activity in this commodity code shows little recent geographic or issuing-body concentration. The Bridgeport opportunity represents a single city school district in Connecticut; the source contains no other solicitations explicitly naming frozen non-GMO fire sweet nectarines or closely related commodity specifications. The broader grocery and fresh-produce solicitations posted by school districts in Georgia, Missouri, and elsewhere (Hancock County, Early County, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI, Savannah-Chatham County, and the Douglas County cooperative purchasing vehicle) list diverse produce and frozen food items but do not isolate or emphasize this specific nectarine variety. The code shows little current purchasing momentum outside the Bridgeport posting, and business development professionals evaluating this commodity should monitor school nutrition program RFPs and IFBs in the Northeast and other regions for embedded line items rather than expect standalone solicitations named specifically for frozen non-GMO fire sweet nectarines.
