UNSPSC 50533603: Dried non GMO burger grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO burger 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 50533603 Dried non GMO burger grapes, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent-opportunities block contains six solicitations spanning school nutrition programs, senior meals, and institutional food service — none of which reference dried grapes, GMO status, or burger-specific products. The City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases sought over 1,100 line items of fresh and processed groceries for school breakfast and lunch service, including fresh produce, cereals, baked goods, frozen items, and dairy. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission procured food and consumable products for an El Paso State Supported Living Center across NIGP classes 380, 385, 390, and 393. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce spanning over 200 line items — apples, berries, root vegetables, citrus, and leafy greens — for the 2026–27 school year. Hillsborough County in Florida sought senior meal preparation and delivery services for congregate dining and home delivery to seniors aged 60 and older. The Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi and the State of Georgia also posted food-service solicitations. None of these opportunities explicitly name dried grapes or burger-specific products as a procurement focus.

The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and county governments, with one state health agency. Geographic activity clusters in Connecticut, Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi across the recent-opportunities block. The code shows little relevant recent activity; the tagging mismatch suggests either miscoding by the jurisdiction or that dried non-GMO burger grapes are a minor line item within broader grocery or produce solicitations that do not surface as distinct procurement events. A business development firm pursuing this code should verify whether state and local food-service buyers in the target regions source dried grapes as part of bulk nutrition procurement or whether the code reflects outdated or erroneous taxonomy application.
