UNSPSC 50533494: Dried non GMO waltman cross grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO waltman cross 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 50533494 Dried non-GMO Waltman cross grapes, a Commodity code, does not appear in the recent state and local procurement activity supplied. The thirteen opportunities present in the dataset span school nutrition programs, senior meal services, and institutional food service across Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Virginia, but none explicitly reference dried grapes or specialty dried fruit products. The opportunities solicited instead emphasize fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), grocery staples (proteins, grains, condiments), eggs, and prepared meal services. The disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the actual buying activity presented suggests either that this specific commodity moves through broader grocery or produce contracts tagged at higher UNSPSC tiers, or that state and local procurement in the regions and timeframe covered by the dataset has not recently solicited this item as a standalone line.

State and local buyers most active in food procurement during the period shown (January through June 2026) are school districts and county boards of education, followed by county and city government agencies. School districts dominate, with eight of thirteen opportunities coming from K-12 nutrition programs across Bridgeport (Connecticut), Fairfax County (Virginia), Hancock County (Georgia), Bulloch County (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County (Georgia), Meriden (Connecticut), Douglas County (Georgia), and Pascagoula-Gautier (Mississippi). County and state-level opportunities include Texas Health and Human Services Commission (supporting a state-operated facility), Hillsborough County commissioners (senior meals), and the State of Georgia (general food and produce). Across these buyers, dried specialty fruits are not specifically named, suggesting the code may see limited transactional volume or bundling into larger grocery frameworks.
