UNSPSC 50535707: Dried non GMO flavor fall plucot

The variety of non GMO plucots known as non GMO flavor fall plucot 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 50535707 Dried non-GMO flavor fall plucot is a Commodity code with no relevant recent state and local contract activity. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show no procurement of dried plucots or specialty dried fruits; instead, the solicitations span fresh produce (apples, berries, carrots, leafy greens), grocery staples (cereals, dairy, condiments, snacks, meats), meal delivery services, and bulk food supplies for school districts, county governments, and state agencies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests either systematic misclassification in the posting system or dormant procurement demand for this specific commodity at the state and local level.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent solicitations from Fairfax County Public Schools, Meriden Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Pascagoula-Gautier School District, and Douglas County School System; counties and municipalities also procure under related categories (Hillsborough County for senior meals, the City of Bridgeport, the City of Dallas, and the City of Meriden). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Bridgeport's June 2026 IFB for 1,100+ grocery line items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education's National School Lunch Program, Fairfax County Public Schools' April 2026 IFB for Master Grocery K-12 service across 45 schools, and Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items with firm pricing through June 30, 2027. Bidders should monitor school nutrition procurement closely under closely related produce, grocery supply, and meal-service codes rather than expect activity under the dried-plucot code itself.
