UNSPSC 50533903: Dried non GMO blake kiwi fruits

The variety of non GMO kiwi fruit known as non GMO blake 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 50533903 Dried non-GMO blake kiwi fruits (Commodity) does not see active procurement among state and local governments in the recent opportunity record. The single reference to kiwis appears incidentally in the Hancock County Board of Education fresh produce solicitation (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), which lists kiwis alongside roughly 200 fresh produce items as one line among many specialty fruits. State and local procurement under this code is not presently documented.

The opportunities tagged with UNSPSC 50533903 or overlapping produce codes reflect a much broader commodity scope—comprehensive grocery supply for school districts, fresh produce aggregates spanning dozens of line items, and complete food service distribution to institutional customers—rather than a single dried fruit product category. Bidders pursuing work under this code should note that school nutrition programs, state agencies, and county systems do buy fresh and processed produce items, but these appear within large bundled food service contracts rather than as standalone dried-kiwi line items, and recent activity centers on fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus, root vegetables) and complete food distribution, not specialty dried fruits.
