UNSPSC 50523625: Non GMO malvasia bianca grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO malvasia bianca 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 50523625 Non GMO malvasia bianca grapes (Commodity) does not show relevant recent activity under the code name. The recent opportunities tagged to this code span fresh produce procurement broadly — petite bananas, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, mixed fresh produce for school nutrition programs, and general food service — but do not identify non-GMO malvasia bianca grapes specifically as a line item or scope element. The code's narrow commodity focus and the broad, undifferentiated produce-sourcing activity in the opportunity set suggest either inconsistent code assignment by issuing bodies or minimal dedicated demand for this specific grape variety in state and local procurement.

State and local issuing bodies acquiring produce under related codes include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education), county parks and recreation departments (Collier County), health care coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state agencies (State of Georgia). Recent produce solicitations emphasize domestic sourcing, HACCP compliance, local-farm sourcing within specified radii (typically 400 miles), competitive pricing, USDA program compliance, and frequent delivery to multiple school sites. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin, with scattered opportunities in Florida and nationwide state-level procurement. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks due July 29, 2026, emphasizing Wisconsin sourcing within 400 miles; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with bids due June 26, 2026; and Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables with a June 22, 2026 proposal deadline and 400-mile local sourcing requirement.
