UNSPSC 50553439: Canned or jarred non GMO flame tokay grapes

The variety of non GMO table grapes known as non GMO flame tokay 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 50553439 Canned or jarred non-GMO flame tokay grapes is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitation activity shows no procurement aligned with this product specification. The recent opportunities block records ten state and local food-service solicitations posted between May and October 2026, spanning county nutrition programs, state correctional and health facilities, school districts, and municipal education agencies; however, none of the recorded opportunities specifically solicit canned or jarred flame tokay grapes, non-GMO or otherwise. The opportunities include canned applesauce, fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, specialty fruits), dried fruit bars and apple crisps, and broad food and consumable commodities for institutions, but do not name flame tokay grapes or grape products. The code nominally represents a narrow specialty item within the broader dried, canned, and preserved fruit family, yet the sourced opportunities reveal that state and local procurement in this product space focuses on higher-volume items such as mixed fresh produce, canned fruits with established USDA commodity specifications, and generic shelf-stable food supplies rather than named varietal grape products.

The issuing bodies soliciting under related food codes include Gwinnett County (Georgia), the State of Illinois, the State of Oregon, Austin Independent School District (Texas), Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), City of Bridgeport (Connecticut), State of Georgia, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with school district and corrections agencies representing repeat solicitors. Representative recent opportunities include Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026, $21.84 historical unit price); Gwinnett County IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins (1,062 cases, informal quotes due October 19, 2026); and Texas HHSC IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumables to the El Paso State Supported Living Center (estimated $1.5 million prior-period value, proposals due July 13, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent procurement activity and does not map to the solicitation volume or product mix observable under related commodity codes in current state and local procurement.
