UNSPSC 50606843: Frozen Non GMO mamey sapote

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO mamey sapote 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 50606843 Frozen Non GMO mamey sapote is a Commodity code that represents specialty frozen fruit products for institutional food service, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal direct solicitation of mamey sapote specifically. Instead, the code sits within a broader ecosystem of frozen and fresh produce procurement by school districts, state agencies, and education authorities buying comprehensive produce portfolios for child nutrition programs. School districts and state education agencies are the primary issuing bodies soliciting under related produce categories, with activity concentrated in Georgia and Missouri, supplemented by solicitations from Texas and other states. The scope of work spans fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, citrus), frozen vegetables and fruits, eggs, and ancillary grocery items delivered to school sites with strict temperature control, HACCP compliance, food-recall procedures, Buy American provisions, and adherence to USDA nutrition standards including whole-grain and low-sodium requirements.

Recent opportunities show school districts and state agencies issuing RFPs and IFBs for produce and food service supplies across multiple states. The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System issued an RFP (Bid 26-34) due April 23, 2026, for fresh produce covering 72 items with estimated annual quantities reaching 21,125 cases for certain produce lines and delivery to 60 school sites. The Douglas County School System in Georgia posted RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative due March 4, 2026, for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million in Area One and $1.1 million in Area Two. The City Schools of Decatur issued IFB for frozen foods and grocery items due May 15, 2026, requiring $1,000,000 general liability and $2,000,000 aggregate coverage with quarterly pricing adjustments capped at 10% increases. Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items with over 900 line items due April 29, 2026, serving approximately 6,900 daily lunch and 900 daily breakfast participants. These solicitations emphasize firm pricing for full contract periods, domestic sourcing, and line-item award discretion allowing multiple vendors per category. Geographic activity centers on Georgia school districts (Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, Decatur, Early County) and extends to Missouri (Rockwood R-VI) and Texas (Dallas ISD), with state-level fresh produce procurement in Georgia also present.
