UNSPSC 50306215: Munz cuyamaca raspberry

The variety of raspberries known as munz cuyamaca raspberry

UNSPSC 50306215 Munz cuyamaca raspberry is a Commodity code that describes specialty fresh berry products procured by state and local governments primarily for school nutrition programs and child care food services. The recent opportunities show that state and local issuing bodies are sourcing fresh raspberries and other berries as components of broader fresh produce contracts serving K-12 school districts, early childhood care programs operating under CACFP, and federally funded fresh fruit and vegetable initiatives. The work being solicited spans individual line-item bids for specialty berries within large multi-item produce procurements, as well as dedicated fresh produce contracts that include raspberries alongside apples, strawberries, broccoli, carrots, and seasonal fruits and vegetables. Issuing bodies include school districts (particularly in Georgia, Texas, Florida, Wisconsin, Connecticut, and Oregon), Head Start agencies, child care food programs under city management, and county school systems. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with procurement driven by National School Lunch Program compliance, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program funding, CACFP meal service requirements, and farm-to-school initiatives emphasizing local sourcing within defined geographic radii (typically 200–400 miles).

The geographic spread of recent activity concentrates heavily in Georgia, with multiple sealed-bid and RFP solicitations from Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (72 produce items), Glynn County Board of Education (60+ line items), Dougherty County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County Schools, Bulloch County Schools, and Bryan County Schools. Texas school districts including Austin ISD, McAllen ISD, and Edinburg child care programs have posted RFPs and RFBs for fresh produce including berries. Florida (Hillsborough County), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools and Bridgeport Board of Education), Oregon (Central Point School District), and South Carolina jurisdictions also show recent activity. Representative opportunities include Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 (RFB due April 23, 2026) soliciting 72 fresh produce items including processed or single-serve produce with an estimated annual spend across 60 school sites; Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026) for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks requiring weekly delivery of 5,900 servings to elementary students with Wisconsin-sourced, ready-to-eat produce; and Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 (due April 14, 2026) for fresh produce including strawberry clamshells (5,900 units) to 16 school locations. Pricing in these procurements typically follows firm fixed-unit or case-price models, with delivery occurring weekly or twice-weekly, temperature-controlled transport required, and payment net 30–45 days from delivery or invoice.
