UNSPSC 50606303: Frozen Non GMO diane sweet potatoes

The variety of Non GMO sweet potatoes known as Non GMO diane sweet potatoes 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 50606303 Frozen Non GMO Diane Sweet Potatoes is a Commodity code that reflects state and local government purchasing of shelf-stable and fresh food products for institutional meal programs, senior services, and emergency assistance. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring comprehensive food inventories—not solely the frozen sweet potatoes the code nominally specifies—including proteins, grains, vegetables, dairy, and prepared items for school lunch and breakfast programs, senior nutrition centers, and county emergency food distribution. Issuing bodies include county governments (Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners), state agencies (State of Georgia), and independent school districts (Early County Board of Education), with school districts appearing as the primary and most active buyer segment under this code in recent months.

The code shows activity concentrated in Georgia, where the three most recent opportunities appeared between May and October 2026. Early County Board of Education posted FY27 Food Bid—Early County Schools (IFB, due June 8, 2026) soliciting approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with contract performance July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia posted FOOD, SUPPLIES, AND OTHER KITCHEN PRODUCTS (IFB, due June 22, 2026) with full scope and pricing in attached documentation. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted IWQ 140229 Purchase of Food Items (RFQ, due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, and pasta for the Department of Community Services, with delivery to Gwinnett Senior Services Center. Early County's solicitation emphasized domestic sourcing preferences, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with Buy American compliance and HACCP plan requirements for vendors.
