UNSPSC 50336228: Dried organic yellow himalayan raspberry

The variety of organic raspberries known as organic yellow himalayan raspberry that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50336228 Dried organic yellow Himalayan raspberry is a Commodity code that encompasses dried fruit products procured by state and local school nutrition programs and corrections departments. Based on recent solicitations, state and local governments under this code are buying fresh and dried produce items—including berries, dried fruits, and specialty produce—as components of larger food-supply contracts for institutional food service. The issuing bodies include school districts (both county and city boards of education), state departments of criminal justice, and state-level procurement offices acting on behalf of correctional facilities. School nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, with purchases driven by the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act's Buy American provision, which requires a minimum of 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including berries, with delivery to three school sites and a contract period running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities including fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center via electronic submission through OpenGov, also due June 26, 2026, with MBE/CBE certifications applicable. The State of Georgia issued an IFB on May 15, 2026, for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller's Statewide Procurement Division, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products to supply TDCJ warehouse locations across five geographic areas, with the response deadline extended to May 4, 2026. A separate TDCJ solicitation (Bid No. IW236532) targeted whole, pitted, dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality with a 1,400-box minimum order for delivery to a Corpus Christi location.
