UNSPSC 50523452: Non GMO late seedless grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO late 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 50523452 Non GMO late seedless grapes is a Commodity code that state and local governments are procuring primarily as component items within broader fresh-produce supply contracts rather than as standalone specialty purchases. The code sees activity across school districts, county parks and recreation departments, and healthcare coalitions, where non-GMO late seedless grapes compete within wider fresh-fruit procurement alongside apples, bananas, berries, melons, and citrus. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix; Madison Metropolitan School District and Hancock County Board of Education have both posted fresh-produce RFBs specifying detailed line items, quality standards, and delivery logistics for regular food service and federal nutrition programs. County recreation departments and healthcare coalitions also appear as secondary buyers. The work involves vendor qualification and compliance with food-safety standards, HACCP plan submission, insurance requirements, and traceability documentation—standard for fresh-produce contracting in public food service.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Midwest. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) solicited fresh fruit and vegetable snacks in July 2026 with RFB 4163, imposing a 400-mile sourcing radius and requiring delivery of processed, ready-to-eat produce by July 29, 2026. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB SN002-2027 in June 2026 covering over 200 fresh-produce line items including multiple apple and berry varieties for the 2026-27 school year, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026. Bartow County School System (Georgia) posted RFP 10-2026-019 in May 2026 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, with proposals due June 22, 2026 and contract award anticipated July 20, 2026. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) sought line-by-line food bids including fresh fruits and vegetables in May 2026 with bids due June 8, 2026. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate for North Collier Regional Park food services in October 2026, with menu-variety evaluation weighting 35 points and proposals due March 6, 2025. Non-GMO seedless grapes do not appear as explicit line items in the posted solicitations; the code shows indirect activity through multi-item produce contracts where such items may be specified in attached line-item worksheets not fully detailed in the summaries.
