UNSPSC 50534505: Dried non GMO francine mangoes

The variety of non GMO mangoes known as non GMO francine mangoes 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 50534505 Dried non-GMO francine mangoes is a Commodity code that classifies a single product line within broader food procurement, but the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under this code do not reflect purchasing of dried mangoes specifically. Instead, the opportunities show school districts, county governments, state health agencies, and municipal education departments soliciting bids for fresh produce, prepared meals, grocery staples, and food-service supplies under broader food and nutrition contracts. The Commodity code itself appears to be a mislabeling or administrative artifact; the actual work being bought covers comprehensive school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food provisioning that span dozens or hundreds of line items across multiple produce categories, with dried mangoes at most a minor line item within fresh-produce or specialty-produce lots.

Recent opportunities span multiple states and issuing bodies. The Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posted an IFB for fresh produce with over 200 line items and a June 26, 2026 response date; the City of Bridgeport in Connecticut solicited grocery items for the Bridgeport Board of Education Food & Nutrition Services through an IFB due June 30, 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted an IFB (HHS0017449) for food and consumable products at the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a July 13, 2026 deadline; Hillsborough County in Florida released an ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery services worth an estimated $17,832,659.90 over three years due June 25, 2026; the State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date; and the Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi sought packaged meal boxes for the summer food-service program with an April 29, 2026 deadline. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and county commissioners' offices, with occasional state health and human-services departments. Because the code shows little relevant activity specific to dried mangoes as a stand-alone commodity, pursue opportunities only if your firm supplies fresh or specialty produce in bulk to school nutrition or institutional food-service programs.
