UNSPSC 50356202: Frozen organic bailey queensland raspberry

The variety of organic raspberries known as organic bailey queensland raspberry that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356202 Frozen organic bailey queensland raspberry, a Commodity code, shows limited direct relevance to state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single frozen fruit product—organic raspberries from Queensland, Australia—yet the recent solicitations tagged under it are broad grocery and fresh produce procurements for school nutrition programs, not line-item purchases of a specific frozen raspberry variety. The actual work being solicited under this code involves school districts and education agencies procuring comprehensive food service inventories spanning hundreds of line items: proteins, grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy, condiments, and prepared foods to support National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs across multiple school sites. The issuing-body mix consists primarily of county boards of education and city school districts, with one state-level procurement (Georgia) and one cooperative-purchasing vehicle (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 school districts across Georgia). No repeat single buyer dominates the recent opportunities—each district or system issues its own annual procurement.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Connecticut, with additional solicitations from Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) Department of Public Purchases issuing IFB BNB052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items due June 30, 2026, supporting the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services; Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) requesting fresh produce under IFB #SN002-2027 with 200+ line items due June 26, 2026; the Douglas County School System (Georgia) issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One, due March 4, 2026; and Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) soliciting over 900 grocery line items for the 2026-27 school year with electronic bids due April 29, 2026. All contracts run July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and require Buy American compliance, HACCP plans, firm fixed pricing with limited escalation, and delivery to multiple school sites with no separate fuel surcharges.
