UNSPSC 50545319: Frozen non GMO elegant lady peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO elegant lady 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 50545319 Frozen non-GMO elegant lady peaches, a Commodity code, maps poorly to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The opportunities describe broad food-service procurement for school nutrition programs—covering hundreds of grocery line items spanning frozen products, fresh produce, dairy, proteins, grains, and supplies—but none explicitly identify peaches, let alone frozen non-GMO elegant lady peaches as a discrete line item or category. School districts and municipalities buying under this nominal code are actually procuring comprehensive meal-support contracts where peaches, if present at all, represent a single product line among many. The scope of work in practice is school nutrition procurement: districts and the City of Bridgeport solicit annual or multi-year contracts for all food, frozen goods, and supplies needed to operate breakfast and lunch programs under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with strict compliance on nutrition standards, whole-grain requirements, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed items), HACCP plans, food recall procedures, and delivery logistics to multiple school sites Monday through Friday.

The issuing bodies are school districts and municipalities in Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut, with Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, and City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases all active in the recent block. Georgia dominates the geographic spread, with multiple school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Decatur, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County) posting opportunities between February and June 2026; Rockwood R-VI in Missouri (St. Louis County) and Bridgeport, Connecticut also solicited in the same window. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, June 26, 2026 due date), Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid covering 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies (June 8, 2026 due date), City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (May 15, 2026 due date), and Rockwood R-VI's grocery-items bid spanning over 900 line items (April 29, 2026 due date). The code shows no meaningful recent activity in frozen peaches as a distinct procurement category.
