UNSPSC 50346205: Frozen delicious raspberry

The variety of raspberries known as delicious raspberry that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50346205 Frozen delicious raspberry is a Commodity code representing individual frozen raspberry products that state and local governments procure as line items within broader grocery and food service solicitations. State and local buyers—primarily school districts, state health and human services agencies, and correctional facilities—source frozen raspberries as components of comprehensive food procurement contracts rather than as standalone purchases. The code sits at the granular product level; opportunities tagged under it are typically embedded in larger IFB or RFP notices soliciting dozens or hundreds of food line items spanning proteins, produce, dairy, and frozen goods to supply institutional food services, school nutrition programs, and state facility operations.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with substantial activity from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring for state hospitals and state supported living centers. Recent opportunities span Georgia (Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Decatur City Schools, Douglas County School System, Fulton County Schools), Texas (Texas HHS Commission, Head Start of Greater Dallas, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and California (Santa Clara County). Representative recent solicitations include the Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0017660 for groceries for Big Spring State Hospital (due July 27, 2026), which spans 110 line items of food and supplies with responses due as firm fixed unit prices; the Bridgeport Board of Education IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items supporting the National School Lunch Program (due June 30, 2026), requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural content and compliance with Buy American and nutrition standards; and the Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce including multiple berry varieties (due June 26, 2026). Frozen raspberries appear as discrete line items in multi-category food solicitations, typically specified by case size, pack format, and USDA or nutrition compliance standards. Most contracts run twelve months beginning July 1 or September 1, with delivery to central warehouses and school sites Monday through Friday during defined morning windows. Pricing submissions are firm fixed for the initial contract period, with adjustments permitted only upon documented market increases using USDA Agricultural Marketing Service reports or Consumer Price Index data. All buyers require HACCP plans, food recall procedures, and compliance with Buy American and federal child nutrition program rules; many impose minimum insurance coverage ($500,000 to $1,000,000 general liability) and debarment certifications.
