UNSPSC 50523427: Non GMO delaware grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO delaware 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 50523427 Non GMO delaware grapes is a Commodity code that does not reflect the work actually being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope specifies Delaware grapes, but the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for grapes of any variety or origin. Instead, the tagged opportunities overwhelmingly solicit fresh produce and food service items for school nutrition programs — bananas, apples, berries, vegetables, and mixed fresh fruit baskets for elementary through high school cafeterias, alongside eggs, beverages, and prepared produce. The mismatch between the code designation and actual buying activity suggests either a classification error in the source material or a data artifact rather than genuine market activity in this commodity line.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida dominate the issuing bodies in the recent opportunities block, with six of eighteen records from Georgia school systems (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Glynn County), three from Texas districts (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), one from Florida (Hillsborough County), and one from a state-level Georgia procurement. The Douglas County School System RFP (SN 26-004) covers 30 districts across two Georgia regions with approximately $5.5 million in estimated annual spending, making it the largest single opportunity. Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's IFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, $78,000 annual contract value) and the Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026, contingent on federal grant approval), both posted July 8, 2026. Georgia and Texas account for the heaviest recent activity, with Wisconsin and Florida each representing single opportunities. The code receives no relevant recent procurement signals; business development professionals should verify whether non-GMO Delaware grapes appear in any current school nutrition RFPs before committing resources to this classification.
