UNSPSC 50306218: Roadside raspberry

The variety of raspberries known as roadside raspberry

UNSPSC 50306218 Roadside raspberry, a Commodity code, does not align with state and local government food procurement activity currently being solicited. Recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code show no genuine raspberry purchases; instead, they reflect school nutrition programs, child nutrition services, and institutional food supply contracts across multiple categories—produce, groceries, beverages, and related items—that bear no relation to roadside raspberry sales. The code's nominal scope (a single fresh fruit product) does not match the broad, multi-category food service solicitations appearing in the data, and the mismatch suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a tracking error in the procurement database.

The recent opportunities span school districts, county school systems, and child nutrition programs across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, and California, with issuers including Madison Metropolitan School District (petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks under RFBs 4162 and 4163), Hillsborough County Public Schools (specialty fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program under RFP 26039RFPDST), the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts (fresh produce and eggs under RFP SN 26-004), and Austin Independent School District (fresh produce and beverages under RFP 26RFP034 with estimated annual value). The code shows no recent opportunities that isolate roadside raspberry procurement or any standalone berry category contract, nor does it reflect activity from farm stands, farmers market operators, or roadside retailers. To evaluate pursuit viability under this code, you will need to confirm with state and local procurement offices whether the code assignment is correct or whether your target markets are using a different UNSPSC classification for berry and specialty produce sourcing.
