UNSPSC 50533659: Dried non GMO teroldego grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO teroldego 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 50533659 Dried non-GMO Teroldego grapes is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its specific product scope. The recent opportunities sourced under or near this code overwhelmingly reflect broader food-service procurement spanning fresh and processed groceries, produce, eggs, meal preparation and delivery, and institutional catering for school districts, county departments of health and human services, and city governments—not dried specialty grape varieties. The one opportunity explicitly tagged to this code, Bridgeport's BNB052266 for grocery items supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services, encompasses over 1,100 line items across breakfast cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, vegetables, fruits, dairy, and meat products, with no mention of dried grapes or specialty wine-grape products. State and local procurement offices issue IFBs, RFPs, and ITBs for fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, peppers, citrus), eggs, frozen and canned goods, and commodities that meet USDA nutrition standards and Buy American requirements—categories that absorb the bulk of institutional food-service spending.

Activity clusters in Georgia school districts (Bulloch County Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools), Texas (HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, City of Dallas meal delivery), Florida (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners), Mississippi (Pascagoula-Gautier School District), and Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), with recent opportunities posted between January and June 2026. The City of Bridgeport's RFQ closed June 30, 2026 for grocery supply to schools; Meriden Public Schools' RFP for groceries and USDA Foods (anticipated contract value $3.1 million) closed February 25, 2026; Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution services (approximately $9 million annually) closed February 18, 2026; and Hillsborough County's ITB for senior meal preparation and delivery (estimated $17.8 million over three years) closed June 25, 2026. No recent opportunities target dried specialty grapes or wine-grape commodities. The code shows limited relevance to active state and local procurement pipelines and warrants close attention only if your firm supplies commodity distributors that aggregate specialty agricultural products into school-district or institutional food-service contracts—otherwise, the activity lies elsewhere.
