UNSPSC 50523662: Non GMO triplett blanc grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO triplett blanc 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 50523662 Non GMO triplett blanc grapes is a Commodity code. State and local governments buying under this code procure fresh produce — grapes and other fruits and vegetables — for food service operations including school nutrition programs, regional parks, healthcare facilities, and other institutional dining. The recent solicitations show school districts and county parks departments sourcing fresh produce directly from vendors and produce distributors, alongside specialized buys for organic or locally-sourced items. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System all posting produce bids in recent months. County parks and healthcare coalitions also participate — Collier County Parks and Recreation and Marion Health Care Coalition each solicited food services inclusive of produce supply. The scope spans routine fresh-produce procurement (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, specialty fruits) with quality standards, delivery windows, temperature controls, HACCP compliance, and traceability requirements. Many school districts apply geographic or sourcing preferences — Madison Metropolitan required sourcing within 400 miles and within Wisconsin, Bartow County specified local farms within 400 miles, and Hancock County applied Buy American provisions (51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content for processed items).

Procurement activity is concentrated in Georgia and Wisconsin. Recent representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) posting an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026-27 school year with bids due June 26, 2026; Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) posting separate RFBs for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 annual value, bids due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (5,900 weekly servings, bids due July 29, 2026, contingent on USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program grant approval); Bartow County School System (Georgia) posting an RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables with proposals due June 22, 2026 and contract award anticipated July 20, 2026; and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) posting a line-by-line food bid covering 300+ food items including fresh produce with bids due June 8, 2026. School districts apply evaluation criteria weighing cost (typically 30–40 percent), local or diverse-vendor preferences (5–15 percent), references, and compliance certifications. Collier County Parks applied a 10-point local-vendor preference for businesses meeting Collier or Lee County permanent residency and employment criteria.
