UNSPSC 50523447: Non GMO jubilee grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO jubilee 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 50523447 Non GMO jubilee grapes, a Commodity code, encompasses fresh grape supply for institutional food service, school nutrition programs, and park concession operations. State and local governments procure fresh grapes under this code as components of broader food-service contracts, often bundled with produce requirements or sourced as standalone line items within multi-vendor RFBs and RFPs. Issuing bodies span school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bartow County School System), county park systems (Collier County), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state purchasing offices. Grape specifications when named in solicitations reflect institutional quality standards—ripeness stages, size ranges, temperature control, fill rates, and traceability documentation—with delivery windows concentrated on early morning windows Monday through Friday to support kitchen operations.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin. Madison Metropolitan School District solicited petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026) with sourcing within 400 miles of Madison and Wisconsin; Hancock County Board of Education issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including multiple fruit varieties (due June 26, 2026) for a July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 contract; Bartow County School System sought local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles (RFP 10-2026-019, due June 22, 2026) for July 2026–June 2027 with four renewal options; Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line food bids including fruits and vegetables (due June 8, 2026) for July 2026–June 2027; Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park with concession operations (due March 6, 2025) emphasizing menu variety and vendor qualifications; and Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals (due August 21, 2026) for the 2026-2027 contract period. No recent opportunities name jubilee grapes explicitly; the code shows activity as a component of broader fresh-produce procurement rather than standalone specialty-fruit solicitations.
