UNSPSC 50544946: Frozen non GMO snowqueen nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO snowqueen 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 50544946 Frozen non-GMO Snowqueen nectarines (Commodity) shows little relevant recent activity. School districts and municipal education systems are the primary state and local buyers of frozen produce, but the recent opportunities posted under this code span fresh produce, frozen grocery items, eggs, and comprehensive food-service provisioning — not specifically frozen nectarines or comparable frozen stone fruits. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases solicited over 1,100 grocery line items for the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services in an IFB posted June 30, 2026 (due date June 30, 2026); the Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia requested fresh produce across 200+ line items in an IFB due June 26, 2026; and the Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County sought grocery items spanning 900+ line items for the 2026-27 school year in an electronic bid due April 29, 2026. These procurements emphasize whole-grain compliance, low-sodium and low-sugar formulations, Buy American requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2,000,000 per occurrence. School nutrition buyers are the dominant issuing bodies, with state department and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (such as the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts) also active.

The geographic concentration of recent activity is strongly weighted to Georgia and Connecticut, with secondary presence in Missouri. Douglas County School System in Douglasville, Georgia issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs (estimated $4.4 million Area One, $1.1 million Area Two) due March 4, 2026, and a separate RFP for food supply and distribution due February 18, 2026 (estimated $9 million annual spend). Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia solicited 72 fresh-produce line items due April 23, 2026. Early County Board of Education in Georgia requested 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies due June 8, 2026. City Schools of Decatur issued an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and kitchen products solicitation due June 22, 2026. Deliveries to school sites typically occur Monday through Friday during morning and early-afternoon windows, with freight prepaid and firm pricing for the full contract term (July 1 through June 30 annually). Vendors must comply with USDA commodity and civil-rights mandates, provide food-recall procedures and biosecurity policies, and accept orders through school-district management systems such as LINQ School Solutions. However, no solicitation specifically names frozen Snowqueen nectarines or frozen nectarines as a line item, indicating the code assignment may not reflect the actual scope of work being purchased.
