UNSPSC 50533620: Dried non GMO grenache grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO grenache 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 50533620 Dried non-GMO Grenache grapes, a Commodity code, sees minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement—the source contains no state or local solicitations specifically for dried grapes or this commodity. The recent opportunities tagged under or near this code span broad food procurement categories (grocery items, fresh produce, school meals, senior meal services, food supply and distribution) but do not evidence demand for dried Grenache grapes as a line-item purchase or contract focus. State and local food procurement under adjacent codes emphasizes fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), processed goods, and prepared meal services rather than specialty dried fruits. School districts dominate the recent activity, with solicitations from Bridgeport, Hancock County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham, Meriden, and Douglas County in Georgia, Mississippi, Connecticut, and Florida, alongside county and municipal buyers in Hillsborough County and Dallas. Texas Health and Human Services also appears as a state-level buyer for facility meal support. These jurisdictions are procuring comprehensive food baskets for nutrition programs, not line items of dried grapes.

Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia (Douglas County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham) and Florida (Hillsborough County), with secondary activity in Connecticut, Mississippi, and Texas. Recent school nutrition solicitations emphasize fresh produce with Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, and firm fixed pricing over 12-month terms. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bridgeport's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items with a June 30, 2026 due date, Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 deadline, and Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution with an estimated $9 million annual value and a February 18, 2026 deadline. The code's nominal scope does not align with current state and local procurement signals, and no business development priority is evident for this commodity at the state or local level right now.
