UNSPSC 50523407: Non GMO baresana grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO baresana grapes. 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 50523407 Non GMO baresana grapes (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement activity as a single fresh fruit category within broader school food service solicitations, though the recent opportunities dataset shows no direct procurement of baresana grapes specifically — instead, school districts are buying mixed fresh produce assortments under codes that span multiple fruit varieties, with bananas, apples, berries, and melons appearing consistently but baresana grapes absent from the itemized specifications. The code shows little relevant recent activity when isolated to its commodity-level specificity; state and local buyers are purchasing fresh produce through consolidated RFPs and IFBs that bundle dozens of fruit and vegetable line items rather than sourcing individual grape varieties by cultivar.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin account for the bulk of recent fresh produce procurement in the database, with secondary activity from state agencies. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) all posted fresh produce solicitations between February and July 2026. Representative opportunities include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 cooperating districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One (due March 4, 2026); Bulloch County School District's Invitation for Proposal for locally-grown produce requiring items sourced within 200 miles, with proposals due May 4, 2026; and Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas with bids due July 29, 2026. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia, followed by Texas and Wisconsin, with Florida and multi-state cooperative purchasing also active. The UNSPSC code designation does not match the actual procurement scope — buyers are purchasing produce by item category rather than by cultivar, making commodity-level code assignment imprecise for forest-to-fork sourcing decisions.
