UNSPSC 50606902: Frozen Non GMO cavalier peas

The variety of Non GMO sugar peas known as Non GMO cavalier peas 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 50606902 Frozen Non GMO cavalier peas (Commodity) describes a single frozen vegetable product line that state and local governments procure primarily as part of broader school nutrition contracts rather than as standalone commodity purchases. Recent school district solicitations show that frozen peas appear as line items within larger food service bids covering multiple frozen and fresh produce categories, though no recent opportunity in the source specifically singles out frozen non-GMO peas as a dedicated procurement. The work state and local governments actually buy under this code sits within child nutrition and food service operations, where frozen vegetables are components of meal planning for school lunch and breakfast programs serving daily student populations across multiple school sites.

School districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas dominate recent sourcing activity under this code's broader family, with solicitations posted by Douglas County School System, City Schools of Decatur, Early County Board of Education, Dallas Independent School District, Rockwood R-VI School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and the State of Georgia. The Geographic spread concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026) and the City Schools of Decatur's IFB for frozen foods and grocery items (due May 15, 2026), both naming delivery to multiple school sites with specifications for USDA compliance, HACCP plans, Buy American provisions, and firm pricing. Early County Board of Education's FY27 food bid (due June 8, 2026) and Dallas Independent School District's RFP for various food products (due April 2, 2026) similarly structure food procurement on a line-item basis, creating recurring opportunities for specialty frozen vegetable suppliers to compete as part of multi-vendor awards. All contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 annual cycles with renewal options, and districts uniformly require compliance with federal food safety standards, E-Verify authorization, and general liability insurance of $1 million or higher.
