UNSPSC 50523641: Non GMO pinot gris grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO pinot gris 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 50523641 Non GMO pinot gris grapes is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities in the source material. The posted solicitations cover broad fresh produce procurement (bananas, apples, berries, root vegetables, leafy greens, and mixed fresh fruits and vegetables for school food service, regional parks, and healthcare facilities), but none explicitly solicits pinot gris grapes or any wine-grape varieties. The opportunities identify food-service vendors supplying fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs, park concession operations, and institutional meal service — categories governed by USDA nutrition standards, food safety compliance, delivery logistics, and price competition on per-unit or per-pound bases. The issuing bodies include independent school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Bartow County School System), county park and recreation departments (Collier County), regional healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). The geographic spread covers Georgia (three school districts, one county parks system, and the state department), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), and Florida (Collier County), with additional unspecified jurisdictions in the State of Georgia procurement.

Representative recent opportunities show school districts and county agencies soliciting fresh produce through RFB (Request for Bid) and IFB (Invitation for Bid) notices with tight turnaround cycles. Madison Metropolitan School District issued RFB 4162 for petite bananas due July 29, 2026, projecting $78,000 annual value, and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks due the same date with a 400-mile Wisconsin sourcing requirement and $0.20-per-pound organic preference. Hancock County Board of Education solicited fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, specialty fruits) under IFB #SN002-2027 due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites and contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Bartow County School System issued RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables (farms within 400 miles) with proposals due June 22, 2026 and contract start July 20, 2026. The code shows no recent activity specifically targeting non-GMO wine grapes or specialty grape procurement.
