UNSPSC 50543447: Frozen non GMO jubilee grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO jubilee grapes that have been frozen 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 50543447 Frozen non-GMO jubilee grapes (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The nine most recent opportunities posted under or near this code span school nutrition programs, grocery procurement, and fresh produce supply across Connecticut, Georgia, and Missouri school districts, but none specifically solicit frozen jubilee grapes or frozen specialty grape products. The solicitations name frozen foods, fresh produce, and comprehensive grocery line items—including standard fruits and produce varieties—but frozen non-GMO jubilee grapes are not called out as a distinct line item or product category in any of the posted opportunities.

The mismatch suggests either that frozen non-GMO jubilee grapes fall outside the routine purchasing mix of state and local school nutrition programs, or that the code was applied to recent opportunities without reflecting their actual scope. School nutrition procurement in this dataset—including the Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI (Missouri), Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) cooperative serving 30 districts—focuses on commodity-scale fruits, produce staples, and bulk frozen items rather than specialty frozen fruit products. Firms pursuing UNSPSC 50543447 should monitor school district RFPs and IFBs for produce and frozen food categories, but current activity does not support near-term pursuit of this specific commodity code.
