UNSPSC 50326220: Dried snow raspberry

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

UNSPSC 50326220 Dried snow raspberry is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of dried fruit products for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. Recent opportunities under this code show school districts and state agencies soliciting dried fruits as components of larger produce and food-commodity packages rather than as standalone line items. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including berries for the 2026-27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases requested bids on commodities for its Board of Education Nutrition Center with 115 line items across multiple food categories due June 26, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued Bid No. IW236532 specifically for whole pitted dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality, 60-70 count size, with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes for its Corpus Christi location. Issuing bodies under this code include school district purchasing offices, state education departments, and state correctional agencies; school nutrition programs represent the largest buyer segment, with procurement typically aggregated into broad food-commodity RFPs or IFBs rather than as narrow single-product solicitations.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut and across broader state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles. The Hancock County Schools opportunity and the Georgia state food supplies IFB (due June 22, 2026) show Georgia district and state-level demand. Texas TDCJ has issued multiple food-procurement vehicles, including the prunes bid and the broader cafeteria food products IFB (304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026 with extension) covering approximately 382 line items across TDCJ warehouse locations. School nutrition programs typically require Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), HACCP plans with 24/7 recall capability, vendor insurance including $1 million commercial general liability, and acceptance of orders through state ordering systems such as TITAN School Solutions. Contract terms run one school or fiscal year with optional renewals at the issuing body's discretion, and awards are commonly made to single or multiple vendors based on lowest responsive and responsible bid or best value. Delivery locations span multiple school buildings or state facilities with firm pricing for the contract duration and FOB destination freight-prepaid terms standard across solicitations.
