UNSPSC 50523486: Non GMO sugraone grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO sugraone 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 50523486 Non GMO sugarone grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The seven most recent opportunities tagged under this code involve fresh produce solicitations from school districts, county parks departments, and county health-care coalitions, but none specifically reference non-GMO sugarone grapes or any grape varieties. Representative solicitations include the Madison Metropolitan School District's bid for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026), the Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce IFB covering over 200 line items of apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, and specialty fruits for the 2026–27 school year (bids due June 26, 2026), and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (due June 22, 2026). The Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025), and the State of Georgia posted a broad food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid (due June 22, 2026). Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce proposals for the 2026–2027 contract period (due August 21, 2026).

School districts dominate recent activity under codes in the fresh-produce family, with secondary participation from county parks departments, county boards of education, and county health-care coalitions. Activity concentrates in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Florida (Collier County), with one statewide Georgia solicitation. No recent solicitations name non-GMO grapes, specialty grapes, or any grape products by variety, suggesting limited procurement demand for this specific commodity at the state and local level. Buyers in this space prioritize seasonal availability, local sourcing (including 400-mile geographic preferences in some cases), farm-of-origin traceability, ready-to-eat processing, and compliance with HACCP and food-safety standards. Price competition is substantial, and school districts apply diverse-ownership preferences and geographic-preference discounts in evaluation.
