UNSPSC 50555371: Canned or jarred non GMO zee lady peaches

The variety of non GMO peaches known as non GMO zee lady 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 50555371 Canned or jarred non-GMO Zee Lady peaches, a Commodity code, describes shelf-stable canned fruit products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, senior services, state hospitals, correctional facilities, and supported living centers. Recent solicitations span fresh produce procurement, dried fruit snacks, applesauce, and mixed food commodity bundles, though the code's nominal specificity to Zee Lady peaches brand does not match the broader commodity activity in the recent-opportunities block. State and local buyers include county boards of education (Hancock County Board of Education, Austin Independent School District), state corrections and health agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, State of Georgia), county senior services (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), and city school nutrition programs (Bridgeport Board of Education). Issuing bodies range from small county RFQs to statewide competitive tenders.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with Georgia and Texas dominating the sample through multiple issuing bodies, followed by Illinois state procurement and Oregon Department of Corrections. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued two ITBs for canned applesauce (approximately 1,904 cases in May 2026 and 4,760 cases in July 2026), with historical unit pricing around $21.83 per case and a 10 percent total preference for Oregon-fabricated goods and resident bidders. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted an RFQ in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables, with delivery required to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center by December 2026. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued statewide IFBs for supplemental food and consumables (May 2026) covering 210 line items for state hospitals and supported living centers with a maximum potential value of $4.5 million over three years, and a second IFB for El Paso State Supported Living Center (June 2026) with prior-period spend of $1.5 million. The City of Bridgeport and Hancock County schools both issued food commodity bids (June 2026) with Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed products. Delivery terms typically specify FOB destination, firm fixed pricing, 30- to 45-day delivery windows, and compliance with USDA and FDA standards.
