UNSPSC 50313462: Organic new cross grapes

The variety of organic table grapes known as organic new cross grapes

UNSPSC 50313462 Organic new cross grapes, a Commodity code, shows minimal relevance to actual state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity tagged under this code—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas—involves conventional bananas, not organic grapes, indicating a classification mismatch rather than active sourcing under the nominal code scope. Recent state and local food service solicitations across school districts, including those from Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County (Georgia), Bartow County (Georgia), Bulloch County (Georgia), Liberty County (Georgia), Muscogee County (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County (Georgia), Glynn County (Georgia), McAllen ISD (Texas), Austin ISD (Texas), and Douglas County (Georgia), focus heavily on fresh produce procurement through RFBs, RFPs, and IFBs to support school nutrition programs. These opportunities typically solicit comprehensive produce portfolios spanning apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, citrus, and eggs—not narrow single-commodity purchases of organic grapes. The code does not reflect the buying patterns observed in recent postings.

State and local procurement activity under produce-related categories centers on school nutrition program contracting, primarily through school district food service departments and cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative. Geographic activity clusters in Georgia (Hancock, Bartow, Bulloch, Liberty, Muscogee, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn, and Douglas Counties), Texas (McAllen and Austin ISDs), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), and Florida (Hillsborough County). Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFP 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks due July 29, 2026, requiring produce sourced within 400 miles of Madison with weekly delivery to schools; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce with over 200 line items spanning multiple apple varieties, berries, and vegetables, bids due June 26, 2026; and Douglas County School System's RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia, with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Most contracts demand HACCP plans, Buy American compliance, traceability documentation, insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2,000,000, and weekly deliveries to multiple school sites. The code shows no active procurement matching organic grape sourcing.
