UNSPSC 50523654: Non GMO st emilion grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO st emilion 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 50523654 Non GMO St Emilion grapes, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source opportunities soliciting under this code are overwhelmingly school nutrition program fresh produce and egg contracts—including bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and other staple fruits and vegetables for K–12 school lunch and breakfast programs, the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, and farm-to-school initiatives. No recent solicitations name grapes of any variety, GMO status, or specialty wine-region produce. State and local governments are not procuring Non GMO St Emilion grapes or varietal grapes as school nutrition items; the code assignment appears to be a data error.

School districts in Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida are the primary issuing bodies under this tag, with activity concentrated in large school nutrition programs serving 10,000–20,000+ students across multiple campuses. Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District (RFB 4162, petite bananas, due July 29, 2026; RFB 4163, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education (IFB SN002-2027, fresh produce with 200+ line items, due June 26, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017, produce items, due April 27, 2026), and Douglas County School System (RFP SN 26-004, fresh produce and eggs across 30 cooperative districts, due March 4, 2026). If your firm supplies fresh produce to school nutrition programs—not specialty wine grapes—the code shows active demand; if you specialize in varietal or premium grapes, this code does not represent your market.
