UNSPSC 50523630: Non GMO mission grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO mission 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 50523630 Non GMO mission grapes (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity. The code nominally designates a single produce commodity, but the recent state and local opportunities sourced under this code do not match its stated scope. The Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 solicits petite bananas, not grapes; RFB 4163 requests fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison and Wisconsin. The remaining opportunities—from Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, and Douglas County—all solicit comprehensive fresh produce portfolios spanning dozens of line items (apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, citrus, melons, leafy greens, eggs, and specialty items), not non-GMO mission grapes specifically. School districts and county boards of education dominate the issuing bodies across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin, with most opportunities posted between February and July 2026 as school nutrition programs build annual contracts for the 2026-2027 fiscal year.

The geographic spread concentrates heavily in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, and Douglas County), with additional activity in Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District). Representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items, due June 26, 2026, with annual contract value undisclosed; Bulloch County School District's IFP for locally-grown produce (24 items within 200 miles), proposals due May 4, 2026; and Douglas County School System's RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two geographic regions, estimated spending $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two), proposals due March 4, 2026. The code shows little decision-relevant activity targeting non-GMO mission grapes as a standalone procurement item.
