UNSPSC 50543472: Frozen non GMO red globe grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO red globe 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 50543472 Frozen non-GMO red globe grapes, a Commodity code, does not show relevant recent activity. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code primarily solicit broad grocery and produce procurement for school nutrition programs—encompassing frozen foods, fresh produce across multiple varieties, dairy, grains, meats, and non-food supplies—rather than the specific frozen red grape product the code names. School districts and state purchasing bodies are buying comprehensive food service baskets supporting National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance, not individual frozen produce lines.

The opportunities span school districts (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, City Schools of Decatur, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Rockwood R-VI School District) and state agencies (State of Georgia), with activity concentrated in Georgia and Connecticut, Missouri, and documented as recently as June 2026. Representative solicitations include the City of Bridgeport's grocery bid (BNB052266, IFB, due June 30, 2026) covering 1,100+ line items with Buy American and nutrition standards; Hancock County Schools' fresh produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) for 200+ produce items; and the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) covering 72 line items across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. While frozen produce appears in some solicitations as one category among dozens, no recent bid specifically targets frozen non-GMO red globe grapes as a line item or primary procurement focus.
