UNSPSC 50533439: Dried non GMO flame tokay grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO flame tokay grapes that have been dried for preservation. 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 50533439 Dried non-GMO flame tokay grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The opportunities tagged to this code in the source dataset are overwhelmingly school nutrition meal programs, senior meal delivery services, and institutional food service contracts—spanning fresh produce, packaged grocery items, prepared meals, and food service logistics—none of which involve dried specialty grape products as distinct line items or primary deliverables.

The code shows little relevant recent activity. School districts in Connecticut, Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, and Virginia; county boards of education; state agencies; and senior services authorities are actively soliciting groceries, fresh produce, meal preparation, and food supply distribution, but the procurement records name apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus, eggs, prepared meals, and broad commodity categories rather than dried flame tokay grapes. The solicitations reflect Buy American provisions, USDA compliance, nutritional standards, and delivery logistics typical of institutional food service—not specialty or dried-goods procurement. Vendors pursuing this UNSPSC code should verify that their product fits within broader fresh or processed fruit categories in active RFPs and IFBs before allocating resources; the code as named does not align with the current mix of opportunities in the source.
