UNSPSC 50523477: Non GMO rosita grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO rosita 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 50523477 Non GMO rosita grapes, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent procurement activity. The code's nominal scope—specialty grape varieties with non-GMO certification—does not align with the state and local opportunities posted under this code, which focus instead on institutional fresh produce procurement across multiple fruit and vegetable categories for school nutrition programs.

The recent opportunities tagged to this code are school district RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs for comprehensive fresh produce supply (including apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and eggs) rather than specialty grape procurement. Madison Metropolitan School District solicited petite bananas and fresh fruit & vegetable snacks in July 2026; Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB covering over 200 produce line items; Bulloch County School District sought locally grown produce within 200 miles of the district; Liberty County, Muscogee County, Glynn County, and Savannah-Chatham County School Systems in Georgia each issued IFBs or ITBs for annual fresh produce contracts serving 13 to 60 school sites; and McAllen and Austin Independent School Districts in Texas solicited fresh produce proposals. Douglas County School System in Georgia coordinated a cooperative purchasing RFP on behalf of 30 school districts across two geographic areas, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. These procurement activities reflect standard institutional food service sourcing rather than specialty crop procurement, indicating that the code assignment may be a data-quality issue rather than a meaningful market signal for non-GMO rosita grapes or similar specialty varieties. Buyers pursuing this code should verify current market activity directly with state and local school nutrition programs, as the recent posted opportunities do not support a sustained specialty-grape procurement stream.
