UNSPSC 50535208: Dried non GMO sweet granadilla passion fruit

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO sweet granadilla 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 50535208 Dried non-GMO sweet granadilla passion fruit is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct procurement activity under state and local government; the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for dried granadilla or passion fruit products, and the code appears to be a narrow specialty item within the broader fresh and processed produce category that state and local buyers tag infrequently or not at all.

The recent state and local contract opportunities in the block—spanning school districts (Bridgeport, Hancock County, Pascagoula-Gautier, Fairfax County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham, Meriden), counties (Hillsborough County), and state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia)—are soliciting comprehensive grocery, fresh produce, and meal-service contracts with response dates between February and July 2026. These solicitations name common fresh produce staples (apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, citrus, leafy greens, potatoes, tomatoes), eggs, and processed food items across school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food service operations; none reference granadilla or passion fruit specifically. The sourcing pattern indicates that state and local procurement for specialty tropical dried fruits remains embedded within broader fresh-produce or specialty-items line items within master grocery contracts rather than as standalone commodity requisitions, and no recent opportunity shows distinct demand or RFP/RFQ/IFB/ITB activity isolating this product code as an active procurement category.
