UNSPSC 50523604: Non GMO cabernet franc grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO cabernet franc 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 50523604 Non GMO cabernet franc grapes is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitation activity does not reflect procurement of this specific product. The posted opportunities in the most-recent block target fresh produce broadly — petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, apples, berries, root vegetables, citrus, and leafy greens — as well as general food service concessions. None of the eight opportunities posted between May and October 2026 name cabernet franc grapes, non-GMO or otherwise, or wine-grape procurement of any kind. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

The visible opportunities instead reflect school districts, county parks and recreation divisions, and state agencies procuring fresh produce for student nutrition programs, facility concessions, and emergency-response coalitions. Issuing bodies include Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System in Georgia; Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida; Marion Health Care Coalition; and the State of Georgia. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin, with secondary posting in Florida. Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's ITB for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual value, due July 29, 2026) and Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and citrus (due June 26, 2026, contract term July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027). These opportunities stress local or domestic sourcing, food safety compliance, detailed traceability documentation, and HACCP plans. Absent documented demand for the specific commodity this code names, pursuit is not supported by current market activity.
