UNSPSC 50605301: Frozen Non GMO bambarra groundnut peanuts

The variety of Non GMO peanuts known as Non GMO bambarra groundnut peanuts that have 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 50605301 Frozen Non GMO Bambarra Groundnut Peanuts is a Commodity code that covers shelf-stable and frozen peanut products sourced by state and local jurisdictions for food service, senior nutrition programs, and institutional meal operations. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through county purchasing departments, school districts, and state agencies seeking bulk quantities of peanut products — including peanut butter and frozen peanuts — for distribution through senior services centers, school lunch programs, and emergency food assistance initiatives. Recent opportunities emphasize compliance with product labeling, delivery timelines, and quality standards, with vendors required to provide references and certify non-collusion on awards exceeding modest thresholds.

Recent solicitation activity centers in Georgia, where 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 for the Department of Community Services, with delivery required by December 7, 2026 and quotes due October 19, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid in May 2026 (due June 22, 2026) with scope and pricing structure in attached documentation. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids for approximately 300+ food items supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program in May 2026 (due June 8, 2026), emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. School districts and county social services represent the dominant issuing bodies in recent postings, with contracts typically running July through June and allowing price escalation tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data on a six-month basis.
