UNSPSC 50554952: Canned or jarred non GMO summer fire nectarines

The variety of non GMO nectarines known as non GMO summer fire nectarines that have been canned or jarred 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 50554952 Canned or jarred non-GMO summer fire nectarines is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity aligned to its nominal scope; state and local governments soliciting under this code are predominantly school districts and corrections departments, though the recent opportunities block shows only one directly relevant procurement. The source contains fourteen recent state and local opportunities, but most address canned or fresh produce broadly—applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce mixes, eggs, and general food supply—rather than the specific niche of canned nectarines. The single opportunity matching the code's nominal product is Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453, posted July 10, 2026, which solicits canned fruit applesauce (not nectarines) with a response date of July 31, 2026; historical pricing for that applesauce was $21.84 per case, awarded to Robbins Sales in June 2026. The remaining opportunities reflect broader food procurement for school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Austin Independent School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Hancock County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Douglas County School System, Dallas Independent School District), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office), and municipal entities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), spanning food service supply across K-12 nutrition, corrections, and state-facility feeding operations.

Geographic concentration appears in Texas (three separate HHS and school-district opportunities), Georgia (five school district opportunities), Oregon (two ODOC procurement cycles for canned fruit), Connecticut, Illinois, and Missouri, with no jurisdiction appearing more than twice except Texas and Georgia. The code shows activity primarily in the April-July 2026 window, with school nutrition contracts clustering around the start of the fiscal year (July 1, 2026). The lack of recent opportunities specifically for canned nectarines—versus applesauce, fresh produce, or general food commodities—suggests that this narrowly specified Commodity code does not reflect actual buying patterns in state and local procurement today. Businesses targeting this code should recognize that state and local food procurement moves under broader Family or Class codes (general canned or jarred fruit, general produce supply) rather than single-product lines, and that volume demand concentrates in institutional feeding for schools and correctional facilities where commodity substitution and competitive tendering on broader product categories dominate the solicitation landscape.
