UNSPSC 50316214: Organic leucodermis whitebark raspberry

The variety of organic raspberry known as organic leucodermis whitebark raspberry

UNSPSC 50316214 Organic leucodermis whitebark raspberry is a Commodity code. State and local school nutrition programs are the primary buyers under this code, though the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations actually tagged to raspberry procurement. The most recent state and local opportunities instead reflect school district food service departments purchasing fresh produce broadly—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, leafy greens, citrus, peppers, tomatoes, and eggs—through RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs. School districts across Georgia, Texas, and Florida dominate the recent activity: Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin, Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bartow County School System in Georgia, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Bulloch County School District in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Glynn County Board of Education in Georgia, McAllen Independent School District in Texas, Austin Independent School District in Texas, and Douglas County School System in Georgia (serving 30 districts through the GEC Buying Cooperative). These school nutrition programs source produce through cooperative purchasing vehicles and open competitive bidding, with contract values ranging from roughly $78,000 annually (Madison Metropolitan petite bananas) to $4.4 million across 18 districts (GEC Area One).

The code itself carries a highly specific botanical name that does not align with the procurement patterns observed in the recent opportunities block. No recent state or local solicitations explicitly name organic leucodermis whitebark raspberries or any raspberry variety as a line item. School districts instead procure mixed fresh produce assortments under broader family and class codes, with purchasing driven by USDA meal program requirements, regional wholesale market pricing (USDA Atlanta Terminal Market reports, Urner Barry egg pricing), Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, and cost-plus or firm fixed-price structures. Geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia, with additional activity in Texas and Florida. If your firm sources berries or specialty produce, the code's granularity suggests limited recent procurement activity under this specific commodity designation; pursuing opportunities will require tracking school district fresh produce RFPs and RFQs more broadly rather than expecting solicitations tagged explicitly to this UNSPSC code.
