UNSPSC 50553001: Canned or jarred non GMO pink dragonfruit

The variety of non GMO dragonfruit known as non GMO pink dragonfruit that has been canned or jarred 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 50553001 Canned or jarred non-GMO pink dragonfruit is a Commodity code. State and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal recent activity; the recent opportunities block contains no direct solicitations for dragonfruit products. Instead, issuing bodies are purchasing shelf-stable fruit products more broadly—including canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, apple crisps, and mixed canned or fresh produce—under food-service and nutrition programs. The code's narrow specificity (non-GMO pink dragonfruit alone) does not align with the commodity-mix procurements actually being solicited by state agencies, counties, school districts, and state institutions. When dragonfruit or similar specialty canned fruits appear in procurement activity, they are typically bundled within larger produce, food-commodity, or nutrition-services contracts rather than solicited as standalone line items.

Geographic activity and recent representative opportunities cluster around school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, state agencies, and county food assistance services across the South and Midwest. The Oregon Department of Corrections has issued multiple ITBs for canned applesauce (S2910000017453, posted July 10, 2026, due July 31; S2910000016975, posted May 18, 2026, due June 2), both specifying USDA commodity standards and FOB destination delivery to Salem. Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0016792V2, due March 19, 2026) covering 210 line items across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide, with a three-year value ceiling of $4.5 million. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) requested informal quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of mixed shelf-stable food items including canned proteins and vegetables (PE77023NONST2027000000782, due October 19, 2026). Austin Independent School District (Texas) issued an RFP for dried fruit bars and apple crisps (27RFP004, due July 16, 2026). The State of Illinois has solicited recurring quarterly weekly food orders for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy under brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications (multiple postings in June and August 2026). Pursuit interest is limited unless your firm carries canned or specialty fruit products within existing school nutrition, institutional food service, or state commodity supply contracts—the code's narrow taxonomy does not drive standalone procurement.
