UNSPSC 50533804: Dried non GMO mountain huckleberries

The variety of non GMO huckleberries known as non GMO mountain huckleberries 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 50533804 Dried non GMO mountain huckleberries is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure it as part of broader food-service sourcing under child nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food operations. The code appears in solicitations alongside dozens or hundreds of other food items — fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, beverages — rather than as a stand-alone line item. Recent opportunities show it embedded in large grocery or food-supply contracts that span breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, snack items, and specialty or regional products. Issuing bodies include school districts (child nutrition programs under the National School Lunch Program), county governments (senior meal services), state health and human services agencies, and city purchasing departments. None of the recent opportunities name dried huckleberries as a specific line item; the code appears to be one of many commodity classifications applied to broad food-supply solicitations rather than a frequently called-out ingredient.

The geographic spread of recent activity is limited. Opportunities appear in Connecticut (City of Bridgeport, Bridgeport Board of Education, June 2026), Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, June 2026), Georgia (Hancock County Board of Education and State of Georgia, June 2026), Florida (Hillsborough County, June 2026), and Mississippi (Pascagoula-Gautier School District, April 2026). No recent state or local procurement shows dried mountain huckleberries as a dedicated commodity or primary focus. Representative opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items for the Bridgeport Board of Education (due June 30, 2026), requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural ingredients and compliance with Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act standards, and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200-plus line items (due June 26, 2026). The code shows no meaningful recent activity as a standalone or named commodity in state and local procurement.
