UNSPSC 50523627: Non GMO mataro grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO mataro 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 50523627 Non GMO Mataro Grapes (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its stated scope. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas, posted July 8, 2026, with bids due July 29, 2026—procures bananas, not mataro grapes, and appears to be a classification mismatch. The district requires 70–90 cases weekly during school sessions, sourced in 150-count case packs at ripeness stages 3.5 through 4.5 per Chiquita color standards, delivered Monday through Friday between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. to the Food Production Center in Madison, Wisconsin. The estimated annual contract value is $78,000 for the September 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 term. Evaluation weights cost at 40%, organization qualifications at 15%, ability to meet service requirements at 20%, diverse-owned business status at 5%, past MMSD experience at 10%, and references at 10%; all bananas must arrive at 55°F or above with a 98 percent fill rate, and bidders must submit HACCP plans prior to award.

The code's recent-opportunities block contains no active procurements for mataro grapes or specialty non-GMO grape varieties. The remaining opportunities in the dataset—spanning Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Schools, Bartow County Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Muscogee County School District, Bulloch County School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and Douglas County School System across Georgia, Wisconsin, Florida, and Texas—solicit fresh produce (apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, eggs) and beverages for school nutrition programs, none targeting mataro grapes specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with RFBs, RFPs, and IFBs posted between February and July 2026. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual recent purchasing activity suggests the code sees little relevant state and local procurement traffic currently.
