UNSPSC 50555317: Canned or jarred non GMO early majestic peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO early majestic peaches 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 50555317 Canned or jarred non-GMO early majestic peaches, a Commodity code, covers shelf-stable canned and jarred fruit products purchased by state and local food-service operations for school districts, correctional facilities, veterans' homes, county social services, and state supported living centers. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers procuring canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and broader fresh and shelf-stable produce assortments as components of multi-line-item food service contracts rather than as standalone peach-specific buys. The code appears thinly represented in posted state and local opportunities; while several recent solicitations reference canned fruit or processed fruit items nominally within the peach commodity scope, the majority of activity targets applesauce, fresh produce, or mixed food-service categories rather than peaches explicitly. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections (Oregon, Texas), state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Illinois), county boards of education and school districts (Hancock County Georgia, Austin ISD, Bridgeport Connecticut), county social services (Gwinnett County Georgia), and municipal purchasing departments (City of Bridgeport Connecticut). No single issuer dominates; opportunities are distributed across multiple state and local jurisdictions.

Recent opportunities show geographic activity in Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Illinois, and Connecticut, with no concentration in a single region. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two separate ITBs for canned fruit applesauce (S2910000016975 due June 2, 2026, and S2910000017453 due July 31, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. PST) specifying 1,904 and 4,760 cases respectively, both requiring USDA 2011 commodity compliance and FOB destination delivery to Salem with a historical reference price of approximately $21.83 per case; ODOC applies a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and Oregon-based vendors. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0016792v2 (due March 19, 2026) for supplemental food and consumables across 210 line items including fresh, frozen, and refrigerated products for state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of TDCJ, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF (due May 4, 2026) for 382 line items of cafeteria food products to six distribution points across Texas. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners solicited informal written quotes (IWQ 140229) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (due October 19, 2026), while the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issued multiple quarterly food-service RFPs for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy with brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (due August 24, 2026 and June 17, 2026).
