UNSPSC 50535867: Dried non GMO rich red plums

The variety of non GMO plums known as non GMO rich red plums 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 50535867 Dried non-GMO rich red plums (Commodity) does not appear in the recent state and local procurement opportunities block. The solicitations tagged with this code span school nutrition programs, senior meal delivery, state facility food service, and municipal catering — none of which reference dried plums or dried fruit procurement specifically. The search results show a systematic mismatch: school districts and public agencies are soliciting comprehensive grocery supply (Bridgeport Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Schools), fresh produce contracts (Hancock County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), main-line food distribution (Douglas County schools), and senior meal services (Hillsborough County), but dried plums appear in none of the line-item specifications, bid documents, or product categories described in these opportunities. The code as tagged does not reflect the actual work being bought.

State and local procurement activity under this code shows no measurable recent volume. When applied to actual school nutrition and public food-service solicitations, dried plums do not surface as a line item, even in comprehensive grocery or produce bids that list hundreds of individual products by name and specification. The mismatch suggests either a data-tagging error or a commodity with minimal or no state and local procurement activity during the posting window shown here. Business development professionals should verify whether 50535867 is the correct UNSPSC classification for dried fruit offerings intended for school or public-sector food service, or confirm whether procurement demand exists under a different commodity code before committing pursuit resources.
