UNSPSC 50603237: Frozen Non GMO lancelot corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO lancelot 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 50603237 Frozen Non GMO Lancelot corn is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure shelf-stable and specialty food items for community services, school nutrition programs, and institutional food service. Recent solicitations show that despite the code's nominal reference to a specific corn variety, actual purchasing spans a broad range of food products including proteins, grains, vegetables, dairy, and condiments sourced for school lunch and breakfast programs, senior services, and other public institutional feeding. Issuing bodies include county purchasing offices, state procurement departments, and school district boards of education. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the State of Georgia, and Early County Board of Education have all posted opportunities under this code within the past six months, with school districts appearing as repeat buyers. Vendors must meet domestic sourcing preferences where required, provide certifications for food safety and recall procedures, carry appropriate liability insurance, and comply with E-Verify and Buy American provisions when applicable.

Georgia shows the strongest recent activity, with two opportunities posted from state and local buyers in 2026. Gwinnett County requested informal written quotes (IWQ 140229) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables, with quotes due October 19, 2026 and delivery required by December 7, 2026 to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center in Lawrenceville. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid in May 2026 for 300+ food items across multiple categories plus non-food supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, with bids due June 8, 2026 and a contract period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia also posted a broader food, supplies, and kitchen products solicitation in May 2026 with bids due June 22, 2026. Award decisions in school district solicitations are made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with pricing evaluated per unit of measure, and contracts typically include options to extend or renew on identical terms.
