UNSPSC 50533901: Dried non GMO ananasnaja kiwi fruits

The variety of non GMO kiwi fruit known as non GMO ananasnaja kiwi fruit 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 50533901 Dried non GMO ananasnaja kiwi fruits (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within school and institutional food service procurement, though the recent opportunities block shows minimal activity specifically targeting this item. State and local governments procure dried kiwi fruits as components of broader grocery and fresh produce contracts for school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food operations. The code appears primarily in solicitations where dried fruit is listed as a line item among hundreds of other produce and food products rather than as a standalone procurement focus. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi), county boards of education (Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), county health and human services agencies (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida), and state health and human services departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission). These entities use cooperative procurement frameworks for annual contracts covering 12-month school years or fiscal periods, with National School Lunch Program compliance and Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content) as standard requirements.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in the Southeast and extending into Texas and Connecticut. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce including kiwis under IFB SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) for the 2026-27 school year with delivery to three school sites. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Connecticut) issued BNB052266 for grocery items spanning 1,100 line items including fresh and dried fruits for the Bridgeport Board of Education (due June 30, 2026, firm fixed pricing for July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027). The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 11, 2026, historical value $1.5 million for the prior 12-month period). Hillsborough County (Florida) issued ITB 26-00289 for senior meal preparation and delivery services valued at $17,832,659.90 over three years (due June 25, 2026). No solicitations in the recent block target dried kiwi fruits as a primary focus item.
