UNSPSC 50533486: Dried non GMO sugraone grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO sugraone 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 50533486 Dried non-GMO sugarone grapes (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local opportunities in the source material. The code's nominal scope—specialty dried fruit products—appears in none of the 14 most recent solicitations under this code. Instead, the opportunities cluster heavily around fresh produce, comprehensive grocery supply to schools and institutions, and meal preparation services, reflecting the broader food and nutrition commodity space that state and local buyers pursue.

The mismatch between the code designation and actual procurement activity suggests limited or no current state and local demand specifically for dried non-GMO sugarone grapes. Recent school district and county buyers are sourcing fresh apples, berries, root vegetables, citrus, leafy greens, and eggs through RFPs and IFBs; state health and human services agencies are procuring bulk food and consumable products; and cities are seeking meal delivery and catering services. None of the opportunities name dried fruit, raisins, or specialty grape products as line items or product categories. This code shows little relevant recent activity.
