UNSPSC 50533610: Dried non GMO charbono grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO charbono 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 50533610 Dried non-GMO charbono grapes, a Commodity code, appears in state and local procurement systems but shows no recent solicitation activity matching the code's specific scope. The most recent opportunities tagged under this code span generic grocery procurement, fresh produce supply, meal delivery services, and food service distribution — none of which involve dried charbono grapes or dried grape products at any meaningful volume. The City of Bridgeport's grocery bid (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) encompasses over 1,100 line items across breakfast cereals, frozen products, condiments, fruits, and vegetables for school nutrition; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for food and consumables (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covers general food service supplies for a state-supported living center; and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's fresh produce contract (Bid 26-34, due April 23, 2026) specifies apples, bananas, bulk vegetables, and pre-cut items — none reference dried specialty grapes. Hancock County Schools in Georgia (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) solicited fresh produce including apple varieties, berries, and citrus; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) required bidders on 76 food items with nine-month minimum shelf life; and the Douglas County School System in Georgia issued two major RFPs — one for food supply and distribution ($9 million estimated annual spend, due February 18, 2026) and another for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts ($4.4 million Area One, due March 4, 2026). School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, joined by state health and human services agencies, county boards of education, and city purchasing departments.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, Mississippi, and Virginia, reflecting widespread school nutrition procurement. The code's nominal scope does not align with documented state and local buying patterns under this taxonomy entry. Dried specialty grapes — whether for culinary, beverage, or ingredient use — do not appear in any of the posted solicitations; instead, the code captures mainstream school food service, produce distribution, and institutional meal delivery. A vendor pursuing opportunities under UNSPSC 50533610 should expect minimal alignment between the code's product name and actual procurement requirements, and should monitor fresh produce, general grocery, and school nutrition categories under related UNSPSC families for more actionable activity. The code may require reclassification or may serve as a catch-all for specialty food items that see infrequent state and local demand.
