UNSPSC 50532406: Dried non GMO smoothey cherimoya

The variety of non GMO cherimoya known as non GMO smoothey are cherimoya that has 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 50532406 Dried non-GMO smoothie cherimoya is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a specific dried fruit product, but the recent state and local solicitation activity tagged under this code shows little alignment with that narrow scope. The six opportunities posted since mid-April 2026 span broad grocery procurement for school food service (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Schools, Pascagoula-Gautier School District), state-supported facility food service (Texas Health and Human Services Commission El Paso facility), and senior meal preparation and delivery (Hillsborough County, Florida). The issuing bodies are school districts, county boards of education, county commissioners, and state health agencies—institutions buying food and consumable products in volume for congregate and home-delivered meal programs, not specialty dried fruit items. The scope of actual work includes fresh produce, packaged grocery items, prepared meals, and supply-chain services rather than the specific commodity named in the code.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast and Texas: Bridgeport, Connecticut; Hancock County, Georgia; Mississippi; Texas (El Paso); and Hillsborough County, Florida, with a broader Georgia state solicitation. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's June 30, 2026, IFB for over 1,100 line items of grocery items for school food service (response due June 30, 2026), Texas Health and Human Services Commission's June 11, 2026, IFB for food and consumable products with a prior-period value of $1.5 million and bids due July 11, 2026, and Hancock County Board of Education's June 10, 2026, IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with responses due June 26, 2026. The code appears to be a tagging artifact; vendors pursuing these opportunities should track school nutrition, commodity food service, and senior meal programs through mainstream grocery and food service procurement channels rather than assume alignment with specialty dried-fruit sourcing.
