UNSPSC 50553427: Canned or jarred non GMO delaware grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO delaware grapes that have been canned or jarred 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 50553427 Canned or jarred non-GMO Delaware grapes is a Commodity code with minimal recent procurement activity under this precise specification; state and local buyers are instead soliciting canned and jarred fruit products more broadly—applesauce, pears, and fresh produce—through food service and nutrition programs operated by corrections departments, school districts, and health and human services facilities. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations explicitly for canned or jarred Delaware grapes, indicating the code either sees sparse demand or is poorly matched to actual purchasing patterns in this sector.

State and local food service procurement is dominated by school districts and specialized nutrition programs at facilities including corrections departments, state supported living centers, and public health agencies. Representatives of recent activity include the Oregon Department of Corrections seeking 4,760 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S-29100-00017453, due July 31, 2026), Austin Independent School District requesting dried fruit bars and apple crisps (RFP 27RFP004, due July 16, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring supplemental food and consumables statewide (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia sourcing fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026). Geographic spread of recent activity spans Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, Missouri, Arizona, and Virginia, with school districts and state agencies in Texas, Georgia, and the Pacific Northwest showing particular concentration. The code's nominal scope—canned or jarred non-GMO Delaware grapes—does not align with the fruit and produce categories actually being procured in the opportunities listed, suggesting either a data-entry mismatch or minimal current demand for this specific commodity among state and local buyers.
