UNSPSC 50533625: Dried non GMO malvasia bianca grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO malvasia bianca 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 50533625 Dried non-GMO malvasia bianca grapes (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity; the code shows no relevant solicitations for this specific dried-grape commodity.

The source contains fourteen recent state and local opportunities spanning school districts, county commissioners, and state agencies across Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia, but none solicit dried malvasia bianca grapes or dried specialty grapes of any kind. The opportunities instead focus on fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables), bulk grocery items, prepared meals, fresh eggs, and comprehensive food-service distribution contracts—categories far broader than a single varietal dried grape. School districts including Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Hancock County Schools, and Pascagoula-Gautier School District have issued recent solicitations for fresh produce, grocery staples, and meal services, while the City of Bridgeport, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, the State of Georgia, and the City of Dallas have posted opportunities for bulk food supply, senior meal delivery, and catered meal services. None of these procurements reference specialty dried-grape products. The mismatch between the commodity code and the actual state and local buying activity reflected in the source indicates either that this code does not align with current procurement practice or that dried malvasia bianca grapes are not a commodity state and local purchasing offices actively source through open competitive solicitations.
