UNSPSC 50535203: Dried non GMO crackerjack passion fruit

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO crackerjack passion 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 50535203 Dried non-GMO crackerjack passion fruit is a Commodity code that does not align with state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities dataset. The code nominally describes a specialty dried fruit product, but the sourced opportunities span school district nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food service procurement—none of which reference dried passion fruit, crackerjack varieties, or similar specialty produce items as line-item buys. The opportunities instead reflect large-volume school nutrition contracts for fresh produce, staple groceries, eggs, prepared meals, and comprehensive food supply services.

The dataset shows no recent state or local solicitations tagged to this code. School districts in Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Mississippi, and Virginia issued IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce (apples, berries, root vegetables, leafy greens, citrus), bulk grocery supply, and meal services during early 2026; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Hillsborough County, Florida issued IFBs for institutional food service; and the City of Dallas solicited catering for government events. None of these opportunities identify dried passion fruit or specialty dried fruits as procured commodities. The mismatch between the code's narrow fruit classification and the breadth of institutional food service procurement suggests this code either sees minimal state and local activity or is misapplied to this commodity category. A business development professional evaluating opportunity flow under this code should verify whether the taxonomy assignment reflects actual buying patterns or represents an idle classification in the state and local space.
