UNSPSC 50532904: Dried non GMO fardh dates

The variety of non GMO dates known as non GMO fardh dates 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 50532904 Dried non-GMO Fardh dates (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity.

The source contains fifteen state and local opportunities posted between January and June 2026, spanning school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food supply. None of these solicitations—from Bridgeport Public Schools (Connecticut), Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Hillsborough County (Florida), the State of Georgia, Pascagoula-Gautier School District (Mississippi), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Bulloch County Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut), the City of Dallas (Texas), and Douglas County Schools (Georgia)—mention dried dates or specialty dried fruit products. The opportunities focus on fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), processed grocery items, eggs, dairy, proteins, and prepared meals. The code's narrow product scope—a single dried fruit variety—does not align with the broad commodity purchasing typical of school nutrition programs, institutional food service, or government meal provision. No evidence supports that state or local government procurement currently targets dried non-GMO fardh dates as a standalone line item.
