UNSPSC 50545210: Frozen non GMO wing-stemmed passion flower

The variety of non GMO passion fruit known as non GMO wing-stemmed passion flower that has been frozen 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 50545210 Frozen non-GMO wing-stemmed passion flower is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span school district and municipal food service procurement for child nutrition programs, including grocery items, fresh produce, eggs, and comprehensive food supply and distribution services — none of which align with the specialized botanical scope of frozen passion flower. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases solicited over 1,100 line items of general grocery goods for the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services Department via IFB BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia sought over 200 line items of fresh produce ranging from apples to starfruit under IFB SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026), but neither procurement nor the others in the block target specialty produce like wing-stemmed passion flower. School districts and county boards of education dominate the issuing bodies, with municipal purchasing offices handling consolidated buys; these jurisdictions procure food service items in high volume to meet National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance and USDA Buy American requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content).

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with secondary representation in Missouri. The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System issued Bid 26-34 for fresh produce across 60 school sites (due April 23, 2026), the Douglas County School System posted RFP 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026), and the Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items for approximately 19,000 students across the 2026-27 school year via electronic submission through NUTRIKIDS (due April 29, 2026). The commodity code as defined does not appear in active state and local procurement right now; the opportunities listed reflect mislabeling or taxonomic misalignment rather than genuine demand for frozen passion flower in the school nutrition or municipal food service market.
