UNSPSC 50533474: Dried non GMO red seedless grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO red seedless 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 50533474 Dried non GMO red seedless grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The source identifies fourteen recent solicitations across school districts, county education systems, state agencies, and city governments soliciting food and nutrition products — including comprehensive grocery bids, fresh produce contracts, meal preparation and delivery services, and packaged meal boxes — yet none of these opportunities specifically name or require dried non-GMO red seedless grapes as a line item or category. The solicitations cover broad food service categories such as fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, potatoes, eggs), frozen products, dairy, grains, snacks, beverages, and condiments, with some opportunities explicitly listing dozens of fresh and processed items by type and variety. Dried grape products, whether raisins or other dried fruit formats, do not surface as a distinct procurement focus in the available opportunities, nor do they appear as a specified component within the aggregated produce or grocery line items described in school nutrition or institutional food-service RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, or ITBs from state departments, county school systems, city school districts, or transit authorities in the June 2026 timeframe and prior.

Buying activity under this code remains undetectable in current state and local procurement channels. School nutrition programs—the primary institutional purchasers of commodity food items for K–12 students—are actively sourcing fresh produce, frozen items, and processed foods through competitive solicitations in Georgia, Connecticut, Mississippi, Texas, Virginia, and Florida, but the emphasis falls on high-volume staple items and perishables rather than specialty dried fruits. Without evidence of active or recent solicitation for dried non-GMO red seedless grapes at the state, county, school district, or municipal level, positioning product or service capacity under this code presents minimal near-term pursuit opportunity.
