UNSPSC 50606101: Frozen Non GMO america spinach

The variety of Non GMO spinach known as Non GMO america spinach 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 50606101 Frozen Non GMO America Spinach is a Commodity code that covers specialized frozen vegetable products procured by state and local governments primarily for school food service operations. Recent activity shows state and local buyers using this code to source frozen spinach and related frozen produce items as components of broader school nutrition contracts, though the granularity of the code suggests procurement at the individual produce-item level rather than as bundled offerings. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state education agencies soliciting frozen produce as line items within larger food-service bids that encompass produce, dairy, proteins, and dry goods for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program.

Recent state and local opportunities under or adjacent to this code span Georgia, Missouri, and Texas school systems. The Douglas County School System issued RFP SN 26-004 in February 2026 for fresh produce and eggs across the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending, with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) posted a line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026 encompassing approximately 300 food items including produce, meats, dairy, and non-food supplies for three schools. The Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited over 900 grocery line items in April 2026, and the City Schools of Decatur (Georgia) issued an IFB for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026. The State of Georgia has posted multiple solicitations including a fresh-produce IFB (due May 27, 2026) and a general food-supplies bid (due June 22, 2026). Activity in this code segment reflects annual school-year contracting cycles (July 1 through June 30 fiscal years), with most awards made on a line-item or multi-vendor basis to optimize cost and product variety across dozens of individual produce and food categories.
