UNSPSC 50376215: Canned or jarred organic munz cuyamaca raspberry

The variety of organic raspberries known as organic munz cuyamaca raspberry that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50376215 Canned or jarred organic munz cuyamaca raspberry (Commodity) represents a narrowly defined product category, but state and local procurement under this code actually encompasses broader shelf-stable food procurement — canned and jarred fruits, vegetables, proteins, and specialty items delivered to institutional food-service operations including schools, correctional facilities, senior centers, and state-supported living centers. Recent solicitations show purchasing bodies acquiring case-lot quantities of applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and mixed commodity food stocks rather than the specific organic raspberry variant the code name suggests. The mix of issuing bodies includes county boards of education and nutrition departments, state departments of corrections and health services, school districts, county social-services agencies, and municipal boards of education, with repeat activity from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Oregon Department of Corrections, and Illinois Chief Procurement Office. The character of work is institutional food procurement — vendor-supplied, case-quantity delivery to central distribution points or facility warehouses, with firm pricing, compliance with USDA commodity standards, and delivery windows measured in days or weeks.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Illinois, Connecticut, and Ohio, with solicitations also present in Arizona and Michigan. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections' June 2026 ITB for 1,904 cases of canned applesauce (ITB S2910000016975, due June 2, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's May 2026 IFB for supplemental food and consumables across state hospitals and supported living centers statewide (IFB HHS0016792V2, closed March 19, 2026, with a potential three-year value of $4.5 million), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's June 2026 commodity procurement covering 115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, and fruit and vegetable products (IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026), and Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' October 2026 informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items including canned vegetables and proteins for the Department of Community Services (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). Most solicitations require FOB destination delivery, USDA compliance, general liability insurance, and firm fixed pricing; several apply Buy American provisions or state-level preference programs.
