UNSPSC 50553603: Canned or jarred non GMO burger grapes

The variety of non GMO wine grapes known as non GMO burger 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 50553603 Canned or jarred non-GMO burger grapes, a Commodity code, shows little relevant recent activity under its nominal scope. State and local governments use the code rarely, and the recent opportunities tagged to it do not involve burger grapes or comparable preserved specialty produce; instead, they reflect broader food service procurement across school districts, state departments, and county agencies for standard food commodities including applesauce, dried fruit, fresh produce, eggs, and protein items. The code's name does not match the work actually being solicited in the records, signaling either a cataloging mismatch or dormancy in this specific product line.

The issuing bodies pursuing food service procurement span multiple jurisdictions: state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), school districts (Austin ISD, Dallas ISD, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Board of Education), and municipal agencies (City of Bridgeport). Recent opportunities span Oregon, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia, with the heaviest concentration in Texas and Georgia school districts. Representative recent solicitations include the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 for canned applesauce (4,760 cases, due July 31, 2026, with 10% total preference for Oregon goods and bidders); Dallas ISD RFP JC250079 for various food products for child nutrition services to the Maria Luna warehouse (due April 2, 2026); and Douglas County School System RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services supporting approximately 32,000 meals daily across 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of $9 million (sealed proposals due February 18, 2026). If burger grapes or comparable non-GMO preserved specialty produce is part of your portfolio, monitor the broader food service category codes rather than this Commodity code, as that activity reflects where state and local procurement is actually occurring.
