UNSPSC 50603249: Frozen Non GMO pristine corn

The variety of Non GMO corn known as Non GMO pristine 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 50603249 Frozen Non GMO pristine corn, a Commodity code, addresses frozen corn products supplied to state and local public bodies, though the recent opportunities show limited direct solicitation of this specific item. State and local buyers under this code primarily source frozen and shelf-stable produce through broader food procurement contracts that bundle multiple commodity lines. The issuing bodies include county governments, state purchasing departments, and school districts. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners recently requested informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of food items including shelf-stable produce; the State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid; and the Early County Board of Education solicited food and non-food products to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, encompassing vegetables, fruits, and grains alongside proteins and dairy. These procurement efforts emphasize compliance with federal standards (USDA specifications for school nutrition programs, Buy American provisions where applicable), domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain formulations, and low-sodium or additive-free options.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia. Gwinnett County's IWQ 140229 (RFQ, due October 19, 2026) targeted shelf-stable food items with delivery to the Gwinnett Senior Services Center; the State of Georgia's PE55645NONST2026000000009 (IFB, due June 22, 2026) covered food supplies and kitchen products; and Early County Schools' PE55045NONST2027000000006 (IFB, due June 8, 2026) sought line-by-line bids for 300+ food items, 60 non-food and paper products, and fluid milk for the school lunch and breakfast programs across three schools with a contract term of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Vendors are typically required to provide references, maintain liability insurance, comply with debarment verification, and satisfy E-Verify and Buy American requirements where contract value exceeds thresholds.
