UNSPSC 50525210: Non GMO wing-stemmed passion flowers

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO wing-stemmed passion flower. 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 50525210 Non GMO wing-stemmed passion flowers is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not align with its nominal scope. The opportunities solicited reflect food-service procurement — produce, bananas, fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs, health-care food services, and county park concessions — rather than horticultural or botanical products. School districts, county education boards, county parks authorities, and regional health-care coalitions are actively soliciting fresh produce, prepared food items, and ancillary food-service supplies, but passion flowers (GMO or non-GMO) do not appear in any of the posted solicitations. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its stated commodity classification.

State and local issuing bodies across Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida posted nine produce and food-service solicitations between May and October 2026. Madison Metropolitan School District issued two RFBs in July 2026: one for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual value, due July 29) and another for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks under the USDA program (5,900 weekly servings, Wisconsin-sourced within 400 miles, due July 29). Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB for over 200 line items of fresh produce across multiple categories for the 2026–27 school year (due June 26, 2026). Bartow County School System in Georgia solicited local fresh fruits and vegetables from vendors within 400 miles (proposal due June 22, 2026). Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park, including concessions and water-park operations (due March 6, 2025, with local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points). Early County Board of Education in Georgia requested line-by-line bids for 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies for school nutrition programs (due June 8, 2026). Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals for the 2026–27 period (due August 21, 2026). The State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026). Prospectors should verify that their produce offerings align with actual demand signals in their target geographies, as this code's nominal commodity does not reflect posted procurement volume.
