UNSPSC 50603241: Frozen Non GMO miracle corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO miracle 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 50603241 Frozen Non GMO miracle corn, a Commodity code, identifies a narrow product line within the frozen produce category, but recent state and local solicitations reveal that the code is being applied to broader food procurement activity. The recent opportunities show state and local buyers requesting shelf-stable food products, non-perishable pantry staples, school lunch program ingredients, and kitchen supplies — items only tangentially related to the frozen specialty corn implied by the code name. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an informal written quote (IWQ) in October 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, and canned vegetables for the Department of Community Services. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids for 300+ food items spanning meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, and grains, plus 60+ non-food and paper items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program. The issuing bodies include county purchasing offices, state departments, and independent school districts — all using the code to procure general food and kitchen supplies rather than the specialized frozen commodity the code name suggests.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, with Gwinnett County's food procurement quote due October 19, 2026, the State of Georgia's food and kitchen products bid due June 22, 2026, and Early County Board of Education's school lunch program bid due June 8, 2026. Awards are made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a line-item or unit-price basis; Early County emphasizes domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with a contract period running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and extension options. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions, maintain HACCP plans, carry $500,000 general liability insurance, and satisfy E-Verify requirements for larger bids. The code appears to be a catch-all classification for general food procurement rather than a precision match to frozen non-GMO specialty corn.
