UNSPSC 50543661: Frozen non GMO touriga nacional grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO touriga nacional 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 50543661 Frozen non-GMO Touriga Nacional grapes is a Commodity code that does not correspond to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific frozen grape varietal, but the most-recent-state-local-contract-opportunities block contains no solicitations for frozen Touriga Nacional grapes or any closely related frozen specialty grape products.

The recent opportunities under related UNSPSC codes or within state and local food-service procurement instead show demand for broad categories of shelf-stable and fresh food products, produce, and grocery items sourced by school districts, county boards of education, municipal purchasing offices, and state agencies across Georgia, Connecticut, and other states. Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (Georgia) posted an informal written quotation in October 2026 for 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned proteins, rice, pasta, and vegetables; the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) sought bids on over 1,100 grocery line items for school nutrition in June 2026; and Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) requested fresh produce including apples, berries, and specialty items through an IFB in June 2026. State of Georgia and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) also solicited broader food-supply contracts covering meats, poultry, dairy, grains, and non-food supplies for school lunch and breakfast programs. The code shows no relevant recent activity and appears mistagged within state and local procurement datasets.
