UNSPSC 50536901: Dried non GMO amberlea gold tamarillo

The variety of non GMO tamarillo known as non GMO amberlea gold tamarillo 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 50536901 Dried non GMO amberlea gold tamarillo is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific dried fruit variety, but recent state and local solicitations show little activity aligned with this narrow specification. The recent opportunities under this code span broad food procurement — school lunch programs, senior meal services, and institutional food supply — rather than the specialty dried-fruit category the code name implies. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Pascagoula-Gautier School District), county commissions and health agencies (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and state procurement offices (Georgia). The mismatch between the code's narrow fruit specification and the actual scope of solicitations—which span fresh produce, packaged meals, institutional grocery items, and senior nutrition services across multiple food categories—suggests this code may be misclassified in state and local procurement systems or applied inconsistently across jurisdictions.

Geographic activity appears scattered across the South and mid-Atlantic. Recent opportunities have been posted from Connecticut (City of Bridgeport, due June 30, 2026), Texas (HHSC El Paso, due July 13, 2026), Georgia (Hancock County Schools fresh produce, due June 26, 2026), Florida (Hillsborough County senior meals, due June 25, 2026), Mississippi (Pascagoula-Gautier school lunch, due April 29, 2026), and a state-level Georgia procurement (due June 22, 2026). The Hillsborough County senior meal contract is the largest single recent opportunity at $17,832,659.90 over three years. Notice types include IFBs (Hancock County fresh produce, Texas HHSC food and consumables) and ITBs (Hillsborough County senior meals). The code shows no repeat buyers or concentrated regional activity; the handful of recent opportunities suggest minimal volume under this specific commodity designation.
