UNSPSC 50346226: Frozen whitebark raspberry

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

UNSPSC 50346226 Frozen whitebark raspberry is a Commodity code that describes a specific frozen berry product state and local governments purchase primarily for school nutrition programs, state institutional food service, and child care meal operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers sourcing frozen raspberries and mixed berries as components of broader grocery and produce procurements for schools, state hospitals, state supported living centers, and correctional facilities. The work under this code spans ingredient procurement for breakfast and lunch service, snack distribution programs like the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, and institutional cafeteria operations.

Issuing bodies active under this code include school districts of varying sizes (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bulloch County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, Fulton County Schools, and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), Texas state facilities under the Health and Human Services Commission, the Oregon Department of Corrections, and Head Start organizations. The mix reflects state-level institutional food service, K-12 school nutrition programs, and specialized child care procurement. Geographic activity centers in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, California, Missouri, Connecticut, and Florida based on recent opportunity postings. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 (July 27, 2026 response date) for approximately 110 line items of groceries including frozen products for Big Spring State Hospital under a one-year contract with prior-year baseline of $32,226.36; the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016590 (April 23, 2026 response date) seeking one full truckload of unsweetened individually quick frozen berries at historical pricing of $0.89 per pound; and the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (June 26, 2026 response date) encompassing over 200 line items including raspberry and strawberry varieties across three school delivery locations for the 2026-27 school year. Frozen berries appear as cost line items within larger food service aggregations rather than standalone specialty procurements, suggesting steady but modest demand at the commodity level relative to broader produce and grocery categories.
