UNSPSC 50533471: Dried non GMO red blush grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO red blush 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 50533471 Dried non-GMO red blush grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in state and local procurement activity over the review period. The code's recent opportunities—primarily school nutrition, senior meal delivery, and institutional food service contracts—focus on fresh produce, comprehensive grocery supply, and prepared meals rather than the dried-grape specification this code identifies. State and local food service buyers soliciting under related codes procure fresh apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus, and other commodity produce in bulk, but the available records show no dedicated solicitations for dried red blush grapes or dried fruit as a distinct line item or primary contract scope.

State and local school districts, county food authorities, and city nutrition departments are the primary buyers in this commodity space, with recent activity concentrated in Georgia (Douglas County School System, Savannah-Chatham County, Bulloch County Board of Education), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools), Florida (Hillsborough County), Texas (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools). The solicitations posted between January and June 2026—including Douglas County's fresh produce and eggs RFP (IFB SN 26-004), Savannah-Chatham's produce bid (Bid 26-34), Hancock County Schools' fresh produce solicitation (IFB SY27), and Fairfax County's Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323)—specify dozens of line items for fresh fruit and vegetable categories but do not isolate dried grapes as a procurement requirement. If your firm supplies dried non-GMO red blush grapes to food service distributors or institutional buyers, monitor school nutrition RFPs and commodity food service contracts for potential sub-line inclusion in broader grocery or snack-item bids, but the code shows no direct state or local demand signal at present.
