UNSPSC 50545351: Frozen non GMO september snow peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO september snow 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 50545351 Frozen non-GMO September Snow peaches is a Commodity code that captures school district and municipal procurement of frozen produce for child nutrition programs, though recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code actually solicit broadly across frozen and fresh grocery items—frozen foods, fresh produce, eggs, meats, dairy, grains, condiments, and supplies—rather than peaches specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with secondary participation from municipal purchasing offices and state agencies. Solicitations span Georgia (Douglas County School System, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Georgia state procurement. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions (typically 51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP food-safety and recall-accessibility requirements, Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act nutrition standards including whole-grain specifications, zero trans fats, and low sodium where applicable, as well as general liability insurance ($1 million per occurrence minimum) and federal debarment certification. Deliveries are scheduled Monday through Friday during morning warehouse hours to central distribution points and individual school sites; pricing must remain firm for the contract period with fuel surcharges typically prohibited, and payment cycles run 30 to 45 days net from delivery.

Recent representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases issuing IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 line items of grocery items (frozen products, meats, produce, dairy, condiments) due June 30, 2026, requiring USDA compliance statements and blind testing at vendor expense; Hancock County Board of Education issuing IFB SN002-2027 for over 200 line items of fresh produce due June 26, 2026, with bid opening June 29, 2026 at Sparta, Georgia; Rockwood R-VI School District issuing bids for over 900 line items of grocery items due April 29, 2026 via NUTRIKIDS electronic system with a public opening the same day in Wildwood, Missouri; and the Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs spanning 30 school districts in two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million and $1.1 million respectively, sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. All contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 of the following year with renewal or extension options of one to three additional years at the school district's discretion.
