UNSPSC 50523644: Non GMO roussanne grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO roussanne 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 50523644 Non GMO roussanne grapes is a Commodity code that sits at the most granular tier of the taxonomy. The recent opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the nominal scope — the opportunities include general school district produce procurement (petite bananas, fresh fruits and vegetables for USDA snack programs, broad produce line items spanning apples, berries, vegetables, and citrus), county park food services, health-care coalition produce supply, and state-level food and kitchen products bidding. Only one solicitation names grapes as a line item within a much larger fresh-produce scope (Hancock County Schools' 200+ line item IFB), and none target non-GMO roussanne grapes specifically. The code shows little relevant recent activity tied to its stated commodity.

The issuing bodies span school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Early County, Bartow County), county and municipal parks departments (Collier County), health-care organizations (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state departments (State of Georgia). Geographic activity appears concentrated in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Early County, State of Georgia procurement) and the Upper Midwest (Madison, Wisconsin; Marion County health coalition). Recent opportunities are dated May through October 2026, with bid deadlines ranging from May 22 through August 21, 2026. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity definition and the broad, mixed produce procurement activity across these jurisdictions suggests either misclassification in the posting system or that the code does not accurately reflect current state and local buying patterns for this specific grape varietal.
