UNSPSC 50545712: Frozen non GMO flavor king plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO flavor king plucot that has 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 50545712 Frozen non-GMO flavor king plucot is a Commodity code that describes a specific frozen fruit product, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code do not actually procure frozen plucots. Instead, state and local governments are buying broad categories of food items — fresh produce, shelf-stable grocery goods, frozen products, dairy, meats, and bread — for school nutrition programs, senior services, and other departmental food service operations. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and county governments. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners solicited approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items for senior services under an informal written quote (IWQ) with a response deadline of October 19, 2026. Bridgeport Board of Education sought over 1,100 line items of grocery goods for school lunch and breakfast programs with firm pricing and compliance with the Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act and Buy American provisions. Hancock County Board of Education requested fresh produce across over 200 line items for the 2026-27 school year. Early County Board of Education solicited approximately 300 food items plus non-food supplies for school nutrition programs. The State of Georgia also posted a food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation in May 2026.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut. Gwinnett County (Georgia), Hancock County (Georgia), and Early County (Georgia) each posted school or senior-services food procurements between May and October 2026. Bridgeport (Connecticut) solicited grocery items for the Board of Education with electronic bids due June 30, 2026. All solicitations required compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products), USDA nutrition standards, HACCP plans, and debarment verification. Delivery windows ranged from 48-hour to 72-hour turnaround, with pricing evaluated on a firm fixed-price basis for contract terms running July 2026 through June 2027 or beyond. The code assignment appears misaligned with the actual work being procured — these opportunities reflect general food-service procurement across multiple product categories rather than a specialized frozen fruit line.
