UNSPSC 50534513: Dried non GMO kuini mangoes

The variety of non GMO mangoes known as non GMO kuini 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 50534513 Dried non-GMO kuini mangoes is a Commodity code that state and local governments rarely procure in isolation, as the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct activity for this specific item. The code sits within the fresh and dried fruit family of food procurement, but recent state and local solicitations tagged to this code demonstrate a mismatch: the only opportunity explicitly listed under the code is a broad grocery procurement by the City of Bridgeport that encompasses over 1,100 line items across breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snacks, beverages, and meat products — of which dried mangoes represent a small component at best. No state or local issuing body has posted a standalone RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB specifically for dried non-GMO kuini mangoes in the recent-opportunities data.

School districts and county boards of education dominate food-service procurement across all sourced jurisdictions — notably Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Pascagoula-Gautier School District (Mississippi), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut) — but their fresh produce and general grocery solicitations focus on high-volume staples such as apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, potatoes, and citrus rather than specialty dried fruits. State-level procurements by Georgia and Texas, county health and human services operations, and municipalities including Dallas and Hillsborough County (Florida) similarly show no targeted demand for dried kuini mangoes. The code appears inactive for state and local procurement purposes in the current market window. Vendors considering pursuit under this code should monitor school nutrition bids and institutional food-service RFPs for any line items that mention specialty dried produce, though the available data suggests demand is negligible or routed through broader grocery master agreements rather than category-specific solicitations.
