UNSPSC 50536006: Dried non GMO red shaddock pomelo

The variety of non GMO pomelos known as non GMO red shaddock pomelo 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 50536006 Dried non-GMO red shaddock pomelo is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly tied to this specific product; the recent opportunity dataset contains no solicitations explicitly seeking dried pomelo or comparable specialty dried fruit items. State and local governments procure food and consumable products under the broader family structures above this commodity, but the available evidence does not show active demand for this particular dried citrus product in the public-sector school nutrition, senior services, or institutional food programs that dominate current state and local food procurement.

The recent solicitations in the dataset—covering school grocery supplies, fresh produce, senior meal services, and institutional food distribution across Connecticut, Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, and Texas—span fresh and processed produce categories, dairy, proteins, grains, and prepared meals, but none name dried pomelo or comparable specialty dried fruit as a line item. The commodity code itself refers to a narrow, specialized agricultural product that does not appear in the specification lists, RFP scopes, or line-item catalogs of the school districts, county systems, state health agencies, and municipalities actively buying food products during the June 2026 to February 2026 window. Unless a jurisdiction's procurement office specifically tags an opportunity with this code to source dried pomelo for a specialized dietary, cultural, or institutional program, the code signals minimal procurement velocity at this time.
