UNSPSC 50326201: Dried american red raspberry

The variety of raspberries known as american red raspberry that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50326201 Dried american red raspberry, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line that state and local governments procure almost exclusively through large multi-item food service solicitations rather than as a standalone product. Recent opportunities show school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other public food service operations bundling dried raspberry purchases within broader fresh and dried fruit procurement efforts, meaning the code rarely appears as a discrete line item. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all soliciting fresh and processed produce including berries and dried fruits in recent months. Correctional facilities also buy dried fruit products—Santa Clara County's Department of Correction procured dried fruits including cranberries and tropical fruit mixes in January 2026. The state of Georgia, via its state purchasing office, has also posted recent solicitations for food products that likely encompass dried fruit items, though full scope details are not disclosed in available documentation.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and other southeastern states, with Virginia and Missouri also posting relevant opportunities. Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (including berries) posted June 10, 2026, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year; Santa Clara County's ITB for dried fruits and nuts (including dried cranberries) posted January 28, 2026, due February 5, 2026, with estimated annual volumes of 1,000 cases of dried cranberries and a five-year contract term; Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs (Food Supply RFP 26-003) issued January 21, 2026, due February 18, 2026, with estimated annual spend of approximately $9,000,000; and the State of Georgia's food products solicitation posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026. Buy American provisions requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic content appear across all school district procurements. These school-based opportunities typically run July 1 through June 30 annually, with competitive bidding through RFP or IFB and evaluation favoring lowest responsive bidders meeting food safety and nutritional standards.
