UNSPSC 50523482: Non GMO scarlet royal grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO scarlet royal 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 50523482 Non GMO scarlet royal grapes is a Commodity code that captures fresh fruit procurement by state and local institutions, though recent solicitations show minimal activity specific to this exact product and instead reflect broader fresh produce purchasing across school nutrition programs, parks and recreation food services, and health care coalitions. State and local governments soliciting under this code span school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bartow County School System), county parks departments (Collier County), health care organizations (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). The work involves sourcing and delivering fresh produce to support school lunch programs, USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program initiatives, park concessions, and institutional food service operations, with vendors required to meet food safety standards, delivery schedules, temperature controls, traceability documentation, and compliance with Buy American provisions where applicable.

Recent solicitations cluster in Georgia and Wisconsin with activity spanning summer and fall 2026. Representative opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Snacks (bids due July 29, 2026) requiring produce sourced within 400 miles of Madison and delivered in ready-to-eat form; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce covering 200+ line items with delivery to three school sites (bids due June 26, 2026); Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles (proposals due June 22, 2026); and Collier County's ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (proposals due March 6, 2025). These solicitations emphasize local and domestic sourcing preferences, organic pricing incentives, geographic sourcing restrictions, and compliance with HACCP plans and food-safety regulations. The code shows limited direct activity for scarlet royal grapes specifically; recent opportunities focus on broader fresh-produce categories, seasonal assortments, and commodity fruit items such as bananas, apples, berries, and citrus.
