The variety of organic raspberries known as organic peck barton's raspberry that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50376216 Canned or jarred organic peck barton's raspberry, a Commodity code, shows active state and local procurement activity focused on institutional food service, though the opportunities recorded under this code diverge sharply from its nominal scope—recent solicitations center on mainstream canned and fresh produce for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state health agencies rather than the specific organic raspberry product the code name suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code include school districts (Austin Independent School District, Fairfax County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Dallas Independent School District), state departments and agencies (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Department of Criminal Justice, State of Georgia), county boards of education, and city purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). The work being solicited spans canned fruit applesauce, fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, leafy greens, citrus), dried fruit bars, eggs, food and consumable products for institutional facilities, and broad commodity food procurement supporting meal service operations across dozens to hundreds of line items per solicitation.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and West, with recent opportunities posted from Oregon, Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Illinois, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S-29100-00017453 for approximately 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with bids due July 31, 2026, offering a combined 10 percent preference for Oregon goods and bidders; Austin Independent School District posting RFP 27RFP004 for dried fruit bars and apple crisps due July 16, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026, for food and consumable products to supply the El Paso State Supported Living Center with a due date of July 13, 2026 and a historical contract value guideline of $1.5 million. School district food service procurements dominate the recent activity, with multi-year terms, firm fixed pricing, Buy American requirements where applicable, and evaluation weighted heavily toward lowest responsive and responsible bid. Contracts typically include renewal options spanning three to five years, mandate insurance coverage ranging from $1 million to $2 million in general liability, and apply both state and federal compliance certifications including debarment verification, E-Verify authorization, and USDA commodity specifications compliance.
