UNSPSC 50531711: Dried non GMO mysore bananas

The variety of non GMO bananas known as non GMO mysore bananas 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 50531711 Dried non-GMO Mysore bananas (Commodity) does not reflect the actual procurement activity in the recent state and local opportunities block. The solicitations tagged under this code span comprehensive school nutrition grocery supply, fresh produce, senior meal preparation and delivery, and institutional food service — none of which center on dried banana products. The code shows no recent activity aligned with its narrow commodity definition of dried non-GMO Mysore bananas specifically. State and local procurement offices are sourcing bulk food and produce for school districts, counties, municipalities, and state-supported living facilities, but the opportunities presented here are tagged with a Commodity code that does not match the work being solicited.

The mismatch suggests either a systematic data quality issue in the source's code assignment or that this particular commodity code is not the appropriate descriptor for the food service procurement activity actually occurring. School districts dominate the recent opportunities — Fairfax County Public Schools (Master Grocery K-12, IFB, April 2026), Bridgeport Board of Education (Grocery Items, IFB, June 2026), Meriden Public Schools (Commercial & USDA Foods, RFP, February 2026), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Fresh Produce, IFB, March 2026), Bulloch County Board of Education (School Nutrition Grocery, IFB, April 2026), Hancock County Board of Education (Fresh Produce, IFB, June 2026), Douglas County School System (Food Supply and Distribution, RFP, January 2026), and Pascagoula-Gautier School District (Packaged Meal Boxes, Sealed Bid, April 2026) — alongside county government (Hillsborough County, Florida, senior meal services, ITB, June 2026), state agencies (Georgia, Food Supplies, IFB, May 2026; Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Food and Consumables, IFB, June 2026), and city government (Dallas, Boxed and Bulk Meal Delivery, RFCSP, February 2026). Recent opportunities span Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi, Virginia, and Texas. Pursue this code only if your firm supplies comprehensive grocery or produce lines to institutional food service; a dried banana product line alone will not support competitive positioning in these solicitations.
