UNSPSC 50523664: Non GMO white riesling grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO white riesling 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 50523664 Non GMO white riesling grapes (Commodity) shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code has been tagged on a single opportunity—Madison Metropolitan School District's July 2026 produce solicitation—but that RFB (4162) solicits petite bananas, not riesling grapes or any wine-related product. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual goods being procured renders the code inactive for practical business development purposes in the state and local market.

The broader UNSPSC family encompassing fresh produce (Family 50523000) remains active across school districts, particularly in Georgia, Wisconsin, and Texas, where school nutrition programs solicit fresh fruits and vegetables monthly through RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs. Recent opportunities from Hancock County Schools, Bartow County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Glynn County Schools, and Savannah-Chatham County Schools all posted in the first half of 2026 seeking comprehensive fresh produce including apples, bananas, berries, and leafy greens, typically with annual contract values ranging into the millions when aggregated across multiple schools. However, those solicitations do not reference wine grapes or specialty viticulture products. Pursuit of this specific commodity code is not warranted based on demonstrated state and local buying patterns.
