UNSPSC 50534307: Dried non GMO herd's mammoth loquats

The variety of non GMO loquats known as non GMO herd's mammoth loquats 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 50534307 Dried non-GMO herd's mammoth loquats is a Commodity code that shows no recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The available recent opportunities tagged to this code span school district grocery procurement, senior meal services, and institutional food service — encompassing fresh produce, packaged meals, comprehensive grocery supply contracts, and catered meal delivery — none of which involve dried specialty fruits or mammoth loquats of any kind. The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual goods being solicited suggests either systematic tagging error or that the code has been repurposed across a state or local procurement system to capture general food service inputs rather than the specific dried fruit product the code nominally describes.

Issuers active under this code span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Bulloch County Board of Education and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia; Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi; Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut), county governments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida; Douglas County School System in Georgia), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission; State of Georgia), a city (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut, procuring on behalf of its Board of Education; City of Dallas, Texas), and a regional cooperative (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts across two areas). Recent opportunities span RFPs and IFBs for master grocery contracts, fresh produce and eggs, boxed meal delivery, senior meal preparation and delivery, and comprehensive food supply and distribution, posted between January and June 2026 with response dates ranging from February through June 2026. The geographic spread centers on Georgia (seven recent opportunities), with activity also in Virginia, Connecticut, Mississippi, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (April 27, 2026, response date), Douglas County School System's Food Supply and Distribution Services RFP with estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 (February 18, 2026, response date), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' Senior Meals Preparation and Delivery Services ITB with estimated three-year value of $17,832,659.90 (June 25, 2026, response date).
