UNSPSC 50523436: Non GMO fantasy seedless grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO fantasy seedless 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 50523436 Non GMO fantasy seedless grapes is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local governments, though the recent solicitation activity under this code shows little direct alignment with the nominal product name. State and local purchasing offices, school districts, and regional healthcare bodies are soliciting fresh fruits and vegetables through RFP, RFQ, ITN, and IFB notices, with scopes spanning fresh produce delivery for food services, school nutrition programs, and concession operations. The work involves vendor qualification, compliance with food safety and traceability standards, delivery scheduling to specified locations, insurance requirements, and adherence to USDA and Buy American provisions where applicable. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, independent school districts, county parks and recreation departments, and state agencies; school nutrition programs appear as repeat buyers across multiple jurisdictions.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Georgia (Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education, State of Georgia) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), with additional solicitations from Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners) and a healthcare coalition (Marion Health Care Coalition) in the August-October 2026 window. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual value, due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across multiple apple, berry, and vegetable varieties for the 2026–27 school year (due June 26, 2026), Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (due June 22, 2026), and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' ITN 258360 for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025). Geographic preferences for local or regional sourcing, organic produce discounts, diverse-owned business certification incentives, and firm pricing for full contract terms are common evaluation factors.
