UNSPSC 50533465: Dried non GMO olivette grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO olivette 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 50533465 Dried non-GMO olivette grapes, a Commodity code, represents a narrow specialty produce item with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities in the source show no solicitations specifically for dried olivette grapes; instead, the code appears to have been applied to broad grocery and fresh produce procurements that do not emphasize or isolate this particular product line. School districts, county boards of education, and municipal food service operations are the primary buyers of grocery and produce items in the source data, but none of the recent IFBs, RFPs, or RFQs identify dried olivette grapes as a line item or stand-alone requirement.

The geographic spread of food service procurement across the source includes Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Virginia, and Mississippi, reflecting nationwide school nutrition program and municipal meal service activity. Representative recent procurements—such as Bridgeport, Connecticut's grocery bid (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's food and consumable products IFB (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), Hancock County Schools' fresh produce IFB (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026), and Meriden Public Schools' commercial groceries and USDA Foods RFP (RFP02641, due February 25, 2026)—all focus on mainstream commodity staples, fresh produce variety, and bulk food items rather than specialty dried grape products. The code shows little relevant recent activity and does not align with the commodity categories currently being solicited under the broader food procurement codes state and local buyers are using.
