UNSPSC 50596425: Dried Non GMO yellow cocktail tomatoes

The variety of Non GMO tomatoes known as Non GMO yellow cocktail tomatoes that have 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 50596425 Dried Non GMO yellow cocktail tomatoes is a Commodity code that describes a niche processed vegetable product. State and local food service procurement rarely solicits this item explicitly—the recent opportunities block contains no bids naming dried cocktail tomatoes as a line item or focus area. Instead, jurisdictions procure dried tomatoes as a component within broader grocery, produce, and food-supply contracts that span hundreds of product categories at once. School districts, county nutrition programs, and municipal food service operations purchase tomatoes (fresh, frozen, canned, and processed) as part of master grocery or produce contracts, not through standalone procurement of specialty dried varieties.

The issuing bodies across recent state and local activity are predominantly school districts and school nutrition authorities—Bridgeport Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, and Pascagoula-Gautier School District—along with state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for El Paso State Supported Living Center) and county nutrition programs (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners for senior meals). The geographic spread spans Connecticut, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Mississippi. Representative recent opportunities include Bridgeport Board of Education's RFQ for over 1,100 grocery line items with a June 30, 2026 due date, Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB for master grocery K-12 with an April 27, 2026 deadline, and Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution services serving 25,500 students with a February 18, 2026 response date. The code shows no recent activity isolated to dried cocktail tomatoes; vendors in this commodity should monitor broader grocery and processed-produce RFPs where tomatoes appear as one of many line items rather than expect standalone dried-tomato solicitations.
