UNSPSC 50303655: Symphony grapes

The variety of wine grapes known as symphony grapes

UNSPSC 50303655 Symphony grapes, a Commodity code, sees minimal state and local procurement activity aligned with its narrow product scope. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting symphony grapes; the City of Edinburg's CACFP meal program (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) names "fruits" and "vegetables" as broad categories without specification, and Madison Metropolitan School District's fresh fruit and vegetable snack bid (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026) similarly specifies produce generically without grape variety detail. School districts, child care agencies, and municipal food programs across Texas, Wisconsin, Georgia, Connecticut, and Florida dominate the institutional produce procurement landscape, but none of the recent opportunities explicitly reference symphony grapes as a line item, instead aggregating all grape purchases under "grapes" or "produce" with no cultivar distinction.

State and local procurement under this code remains either unrecorded or bundled with broader fresh-produce categories. School nutrition programs—the primary institutional buyers of fresh fruit for student meals and child nutrition programs—conduct substantial annual produce bidding cycles (RFB 4162 at Madison Metropolitan School District projects $78,000 annually for petite bananas alone; the GEC Buying Cooperative RFP spanning 30 Georgia school districts estimates $5.5 million in annual produce spending across both geographic areas), but grape procurement appears to be treated as a commodity line item within large grocery or produce contracts rather than a standalone sourcing opportunity. If symphony grapes are purchased by state or local bodies, they compete on price and availability within itemized produce schedules using USDA market pricing as baseline, not as a differentiated specialty item. Vendors pursuing this code should verify whether their product appears in active school district or institutional buyer produce schedules under "grapes" or similar aggregates, and expect to bid competitively against commodity-priced alternatives on line-item basis rather than as sole-source specialty fruit.
