UNSPSC 50523620: Non GMO grenache grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO grenache 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 50523620 Non GMO grenache grapes is a Commodity code that nominally addresses specialty wine-grape procurement, but recent state and local opportunities show virtually no market activity aligned with that scope. The single recent opportunity citing this code—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas, posted July 8, 2026, with response due July 29, 2026—covers fresh fruit distribution to school nutrition programs, not grapes or wine production inputs. The remaining opportunities in the dataset address fresh produce procurement across school districts, charter schools, and county education boards in Georgia and Texas, spanning petite bananas, mixed fresh fruits and vegetables, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and specialty items like mangoes and kiwis, but none specifically solicit grenache grapes or wine-related agricultural commodities. The code appears to reflect a narrow agricultural input classification that does not correspond to active state and local spending.

School districts and county boards of education are the primary issuing bodies across recent produce solicitations, with activity concentrated in Georgia (Hancock County Schools, Bartow County Schools, Bulloch County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Muscogee County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Glynn County Schools, Douglas County Schools) and Texas (McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District), alongside one activity in Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District) and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools). Representative opportunities include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026, estimated $5.5 million across 30 districts), Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 for fresh produce to 16 schools (due April 14, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for 72 fresh produce items (due April 23, 2026). The code shows no relevant recent procurement activity and warrants a skip unless sourcing opportunities emerge in specialty viticulture or wine-grape supply channels outside the state and local education procurement space.
