UNSPSC 50545314: Frozen non GMO david sun peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO david sun peaches 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 50545314 Frozen non-GMO David Sun peaches, a Commodity code, does not reflect the scope of recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities in the dataset are tagged with this code but solicited grocery items and fresh produce for school nutrition programs—including produce staples, dairy, meats, grains, condiments, and supplies—rather than a specific peach product line. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Connecticut), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) have all posted nutrition-program food solicitations in the past six months, but none target frozen peaches as a discrete line item. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with one city procurement office managing food for a school board. The scope of work across these opportunities spans hundreds of line items—fresh produce, frozen vegetables and fruits, dairy, proteins, grains, and supplies—and must comply with the National School Lunch Program, Buy American domestic-content requirements (typically 51 percent for processed products), HACCP food safety plans, whole-grain standards, and low-sodium or no-added-sugar specifications.

Activity concentrates in Georgia, with secondary presence in Connecticut and Missouri. Representative recent solicitations include the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, due June 26, 2026), the Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending near $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026), and the City of Bridgeport's bid for over 1,100 line items of grocery items for school nutrition (due June 30, 2026, extended to July 1, 2026 contract start). Bid responses are typically due within six to eight weeks of posting, contracts run July 1 through June 30 of the following year with firm pricing and no fuel surcharges, and awards often flow to lowest-cost responsive vendors with the right to award to single or multiple suppliers by line item. The code's narrow commodity definition—a branded frozen peach product—does not align with the multi-category purchasing patterns state and local education buyers exhibit under this tag.
