UNSPSC 50533633: Dried non GMO muscat hamburg grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO muscat hamburg 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 50533633 Dried non-GMO Muscat Hamburg grapes (Commodity) does not see meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code span school nutrition, senior meal services, general grocery procurement for public institutions, and institutional food service—none of which feature dried muscat grapes as a line item or primary procurement focus. The City of Bridgeport's grocery bid (BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) encompasses over 1,100 line items across breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, snacks, beverages, and meats for the Bridgeport Board of Education; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's food and consumable products solicitation (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) for El Paso State Supported Living Center covers institutional foodservice under broad NIGP categories; and Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce IFB (SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) specifies over 200 line items of fresh produce including apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, and citrus fruits, with no mention of dried grapes or raisins. The Meriden Public Schools RFP (RFP02641, due February 25, 2026) with an anticipated value of approximately $3,100,000 requests commercial groceries, beverages, and fresh produce for 8,200 students across 13 school sites.

The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Meriden Public Schools, Douglas County School System, Pascagoula-Gautier School District) and state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia), with one county government (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners) and one city (Dallas). Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast—Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, Mississippi, and Virginia—with no evidence that any of these jurisdictions are currently sourcing dried muscat hamburg grapes as a commodity line. The code's nominal product definition does not align with what state and local procurement offices are actually buying under this classification, signaling either miscoding in the source data or minimal procurement demand for this specific dried fruit variety in the public sector market.
