UNSPSC 50545905: Frozen non GMO pat's red pomegranates

The variety of non GMO pomegranates known as non GMO pat's red pomegranates that have 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 50545905 Frozen non-GMO Pat's red pomegranates is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—frozen proprietary pomegranate products—does not match the work actually being solicited under it.

State and local governments soliciting food procurement during the June–October 2026 window have posted opportunities for broad grocery and fresh-produce categories, shelf-stable items for senior services, and school nutrition programs, but none of the recent solicitations target frozen pomegranates by brand or specification. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners issued an IWQ on October 13, 2026 for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items (peanut butter, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces) due October 19, 2026; the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases sought bids on over 1,100 grocery line items for the Board of Education on June 30, 2026; Hancock County Board of Education posted an IFB for over 200 fresh-produce line items (apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus) due June 26, 2026; and Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food supplies due June 8, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a general food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid on May 15, 2026 due June 22, 2026. Activity is concentrated in Georgia school districts and county governments in the June–October 2026 window, with one Connecticut municipal procurement in June 2026. The code shows no decision-relevant recent activity and warrants monitoring rather than active pursuit.
