UNSPSC 50603231: Frozen Non GMO incredible corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO incredible 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 50603231 Frozen Non-GMO Incredible Corn (Commodity) describes frozen corn products procured by state and local governments, though recent state and local contract activity under this code shows limited direct solicitation for frozen corn as a discrete line item. Instead, the code appears in the broader context of school nutrition procurement where frozen vegetables, including corn, are bundled within larger frozen food and grocery solicitations that encompass dozens or hundreds of food items across multiple categories—proteins, grains, dairy, produce, and prepared items. School districts and state agencies source frozen corn as a component of comprehensive child nutrition program food bids rather than as a standalone commodity purchase.

State and local activity under this code concentrates in Georgia and Missouri school districts, with additional solicitations from Texas. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative on February 4, 2026, for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (proposals due March 4, 2026). The Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) posted its Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items procurement on March 31, 2026, encompassing over 900 line items including vegetables and grains across the 2026-27 school year, with electronic bids due April 29, 2026, to be submitted through the NUTRIKIDS system. The City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issued an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items on April 16, 2026, with sealed bids due May 15, 2026, requiring HACCP plans and 24/7 food recall accessibility. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited line-by-line food bids on May 11, 2026, for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with bids due June 8, 2026, emphasizing domestic sourcing preferences and products without artificial additives. These school district solicitations typically require firm pricing for the contract term, Buy American compliance, general liability insurance of $1,000,000 or higher, E-Verify authorization, and compliance with HACCP food safety standards, with contract periods running July 1 through June 30 of the following year and potential renewal options.
