UNSPSC 50525205: Non GMO golden granadilla passion fruits

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO golden granadilla passion fruit. 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 50525205 Non GMO golden granadilla passion fruits is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity specifically tied to this product. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect direct solicitation for golden granadilla passion fruits or closely related specialty fruits; instead, they span broader fresh produce procurement categories including fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, petite bananas, mixed fresh produce, and general food service concessions. State and local governments buying under this code appear to source specialty and exotic fruits through general produce vendors and broadline food service contracts rather than through dedicated commodity-level procurement for individual fruit varieties.

The geographic footprint and issuing-body mix show activity concentrated in school districts and county park systems across Georgia and Wisconsin, with one county healthcare coalition. Madison Metropolitan School District has posted multiple recent produce-related bids, including petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026), both emphasizing local sourcing within 400 miles and USDA nutrition program compliance. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year (due June 26, 2026), and Bartow County School System sought local fresh fruits and vegetables for 2026–27 (RFP 10-2026-019, due June 22, 2026). Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park including concession operations (due March 6, 2025). The State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026). No recent opportunities explicitly name non-GMO golden granadilla passion fruits as a line item; vendors pursuing this code should expect that demand flows through broadline produce contracts, specialty-food service procurement, and agricultural diversification initiatives rather than standalone solicitations for this variety.
