UNSPSC 50531639: Dried non GMO poppy apricots

The variety of non GMO apricots known as non GMO poppy apricots that have been dried 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 50531639 Dried non-GMO poppy apricots, a Commodity code, does not map to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The fourteen opportunities posted between January and June 2026 show no solicitations for dried apricots or comparable specialty dried fruit items. Instead, the source documents broad-scope school nutrition, senior meal delivery, and institutional food service procurements spanning fresh produce, groceries, proteins, dairy, and prepared meals—categories that fall under higher-tier UNSPSC families for fresh and processed foods, not this specific commodity line.

The mismatch reflects a fundamental difference in procurement scope. School districts including Bridgeport, Fairfax County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County, and Pascagoula-Gautier; state agencies in Georgia and Texas; and counties and cities including Hillsborough and Dallas are buying operational food service supplies in bulk—apples, carrots, frozen vegetables, grains, beverages, and prepared meals—not specialized or premium dried fruit SKUs. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, City of Meriden Public Schools, and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners are the only repeat buyers across the sample, each pursuing annual or multi-year food service contracts in the $1.5 million to $17.8 million range. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Florida, Virginia, and Mississippi. No recent opportunities under this code support business development pursuit at this time.
