UNSPSC 50547008: Frozen non GMO cloudberries

The variety of non GMO fruit known as non GMO cloudberries 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 50547008 Frozen non-GMO cloudberries is a Commodity code, but the recent opportunities block shows no relevant state and local procurement activity under this code. The nine recent solicitations posted between January and June 2026 address broad school nutrition procurement including frozen and fresh produce, grocery staples, dairy, proteins, and prepared items for child nutrition programs across multiple school districts and a state purchasing office, but none specifically name cloudberries or other specialty berries in the frozen non-GMO category. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual solicitation content suggests this Commodity sees little practical activity in current state and local contracting.

School nutrition programs dominate the sample, with issuing bodies including the Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia serving 30 districts through a cooperative vehicle), and Early County Board of Education (Georgia), along with the State of Georgia. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the National School Lunch Program (due June 30, 2026), Hancock County's June 2026 IFB for 200+ fresh-produce line items (due June 26, 2026), and Rockwood R-VI's April 2026 grocery procurement covering over 900 items (due April 29, 2026). Geographic concentration appears strongest in Georgia, with secondary activity in Connecticut and Missouri. All sampled opportunities require Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content for processed items), HACCP plans, firm pricing throughout the contract term, and delivery to individual school sites with freight prepaid and no separate fuel surcharges.
