UNSPSC 50523638: Non GMO petit verdot grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO petit verdot 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 50523638 Non GMO petit verdot grapes is a Commodity code that covers wine-grape procurement for state and local food-service operations. However, the recent solicitation activity indexed under this code does not reflect wine-grape purchasing; instead, the records show school districts, county parks, health-care coalitions, and state entities soliciting fresh produce, prepared foods, and general food-service supplies. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests the code sees little relevant recent usage in state and local markets, or the opportunities have been misclassified.

The represented recent opportunities span multiple issuing bodies — school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education), county government (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), health-care entities (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state government (State of Georgia) — with geographic spread across Wisconsin, Georgia, and Florida. Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's request for petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4162 and 4163, July 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB spanning over 200 line items (IFB #SN002-2027, June 2026); and Bartow County School System's RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (RFP 10-2026-019, May 2026). No active opportunities for non-GMO petit verdot grapes or wine grapes appear in the recent posting block.
