UNSPSC 50546101: Frozen non GMO champion quince

The variety of non GMO quince known as non GMO champion quince 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 50546101 Frozen non-GMO champion quince, a Commodity code, shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged with this code—the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 grocery solicitation for school food service (BNB052266)—spans over 1,100 line items across breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meat products in support of the National School Lunch Program, but does not specifically identify frozen champion quince as a line item or procurement focus. The Bridgeport solicitation and other recent school nutrition bids in the dataset (Hancock County, Early County, Rockwood School District, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County) center on core commodity categories—fresh produce, eggs, meats, dairy, grains, and prepared entrees—with no evidence of specialized frozen quince procurement at the state or local level.

The code appears misaligned with actual state and local food service purchasing patterns. School districts and boards of education drive most activity in this segment, with recent IFBs and RFPs posted across Georgia, Missouri, and Connecticut focusing on broad grocery and fresh produce contracts rather than specialty frozen fruit items. Without evidence of frozen non-GMO champion quince appearing as a discrete line item or contract focus in recent state or local solicitations, the code presents minimal pursuit opportunity in current school nutrition, institutional food service, or other state and local food procurement channels.
