UNSPSC 50603206: Frozen Non GMO avalanche corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO avalanche corn 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 50603206 Frozen Non GMO avalanche corn (Commodity) spans frozen specialty corn products sourced by school districts and state agencies to support child nutrition and institutional food service programs. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect a broader procurement pattern focused on ingredient-level food components for school meal preparation rather than finished products — districts are acquiring individual commodity items including frozen vegetables, grains, and proteins that meet USDA compliance, whole-grain standards, low-sodium formulations, and non-GMO or additive-free specifications. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Early County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia) posting multiple child nutrition procurement solicitations in the recent period. State procurement offices in Georgia and Texas also solicit under this family, though their postings typically aggregate frozen foods and grocery items more broadly rather than isolating individual commodity lines.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary participation from Texas. Recent representative opportunities include Early County Board of Education's June 8, 2026 IFB for food and non-food products supporting the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs (PE55045NONST2027000000006), emphasizing domestic sourcing and whole-grain options; City Schools of Decatur's May 15, 2026 IFB for frozen foods and grocery items with delivery to ten schools and whole-grain and low-sodium specifications (PE77310NONST2026000000018); and Douglas County School System's March 4, 2026 RFP for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One (PE64810NONST2026000000047). These solicitations collectively require sealed bids or electronic portal submissions, firm pricing for 12-month contract periods typically running July 1 through June 30, Buy American compliance, HACCP plan maintenance, and general liability insurance ranging from $500,000 to $2 million per occurrence. No federal small-business set-asides appear in the recent opportunities, though several solicitations reference intent to consider minority and women-owned business enterprises under state procurement law.
