UNSPSC 50346218: Frozen roadside raspberry

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

UNSPSC 50346218 Frozen roadside raspberry (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within state and local food service procurement, but the recent opportunities data shows that this code is being applied to broad grocery and food-product solicitations that span frozen vegetables, berries, and extensive produce lines rather than frozen raspberries specifically. State and local governments procuring under or near this code are primarily school districts and state health and human services agencies purchasing institutional food supplies. Texas Health and Human Services Commission posts frequently for state hospital and supported living center food procurement; Georgia school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County, Douglas County, City Schools of Decatur, Fulton County) and Missouri's Rockwood R-VI School District are active buyers of grocery and produce items. Connecticut's Bridgeport Board of Education, Head Start of Greater Dallas, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, and Santa Clara County (California) correctional food services also appear in recent activity. The Code shows low specificity—opportunities tagged to it or nearby codes involve comprehensive multi-line-item food and grocery bids rather than single frozen fruit products, suggesting the code may be misapplied or used as a catch-all for frozen produce categories within larger food service contracts.

Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 (posted July 13, 2026; due July 27, 2026) for groceries and food service supplies for Big Spring State Hospital—a blanket contract spanning proteins, prepared foods, dairy, pantry staples, and beverages across approximately 110 line items, with a prior-year spend baseline of $32,226.36; the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce (posted June 10, 2026; due June 26, 2026) covering over 200 produce line items delivered to three school sites; and Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP (posted June 24, 2026; due June 24, 2026) procuring approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products for child care programs with an estimated value of $969,460.94. Geographic concentration is heaviest in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut) and California, with activity spanning school nutrition programs, state-operated facilities, and child nutrition services. The code itself does not appear to drive substantial standalone demand; rather, frozen raspberries and similar items are components of larger institutional food-supply contracts where vendors respond to comprehensive line-item pricing sheets rather than single-commodity bids.
