UNSPSC 50523657: Non GMO tannat grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO tannat 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 50523657 Non GMO tannat grapes, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent activity in state and local procurement related to its specific product designation. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect a broader pattern of fresh produce procurement activity across school nutrition programs, regional parks, and healthcare facilities, but none of the identified solicitations specifically reference tannat grapes, non-GMO specifications, or wine-related procurement. Collier County Board of County Commissioners solicited food services at North Collier Regional Park via ITN 258360 (response due March 6, 2025), and Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce vendors for the 2026-2027 period via RFP SP0040000017708 (due August 21, 2026), though both scopes encompass general fresh fruits and vegetables without grape-specific requirements. Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bartow County School System in Georgia, Early County Board of Education in Georgia, and the State of Georgia itself have posted multiple IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce spanning July through June 2026 and 2027 fiscal periods, but these opportunities emphasize apples, berries, vegetables, melons, and citrus rather than specialty wine grape varieties.

The issuing bodies across recent produce solicitations span school nutrition programs, county health coalitions, county parks and recreation departments, and state-level food procurement, with school districts representing the plurality of activity. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia, with four school districts and the state government posting solicitations in May and June 2026, while Wisconsin and Florida saw secondary activity. No solicitations in the recent-opportunities block specifically reference non-GMO tannat grapes, specialty-wine-grape sourcing, or vineyard-procurement scenarios typical of wine-industry supply chains. The code shows little current relevance to procurement professionals pursuing state and local contracts unless targeting niche agricultural cooperative procurement or specialty food-service items bundled into broader fresh-produce bids.
