UNSPSC 50545361: Frozen non GMO sugar lady peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO sugar 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 50545361 Frozen non GMO sugar lady peaches is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure frozen peaches and other shelf-stable and fresh produce under this code primarily to support school meal programs, senior services, and other nutrition-focused operations. The recent solicitations show that while the code nominally targets frozen peaches, state and local buyers use similar produce codes across a much broader scope — from fresh fruits and vegetables delivered weekly to school nutrition warehouses, to shelf-stable canned and packaged food items for senior meal programs. School districts dominate as issuing bodies, competing for multi-hundred-line-item produce bids that span apples, berries, citrus, root vegetables, and specialty items at scale, alongside occasional county human-services departments (Gwinnett County) and state-level food purchasing. The blend reflects National School Lunch Program participation and Buy American compliance requirements that drive vendor qualification, nutritional certification, HACCP plans, and testing protocols.
