UNSPSC 50376226: Canned or jarred organic whitebark raspberry

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

UNSPSC 50376226 Canned or jarred organic whitebark raspberry is a Commodity code that in practice does not map cleanly to the recent state and local procurement activity available in the source. The code nominally specifies a single product line—canned or jarred organic whitebark raspberries—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code include canned applesauce, dried fruit bars, weekly grocery orders, fresh produce, cafeteria food products, and fresh eggs. The mismatch between the code's narrow scope and the broad food and nutrition services being solicited suggests either tagging drift or that this Commodity code has been applied as a catch-all within a broader food procurement taxonomy at some procurement offices. The issuing bodies across these opportunities span state corrections departments, school nutrition programs (ranging from independent districts to county and regional systems), state health and human services agencies, and municipal school boards—a typical mix of K-12 food service buyers and institutional food contractors. Geographic activity is concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Oregon, Illinois, and Missouri) with heaviest recent posting activity in the first half of 2026.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the divergence: the Oregon Department of Corrections ITB S-29100-00017453 (due July 31, 2026) sought 4,760 cases of canned applesauce at historical pricing of $21.84 per case, delivered to Salem in five truck loads under firm fixed pricing with Oregon goods and resident bidder preferences totaling 10 percent; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) requested food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center with an estimated historical value of $1.5 million annually, evaluation on best value rather than lowest price alone, and cost-plus-CPI adjustment provisions; and Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) sourced over 200 line items of fresh produce across multiple varieties with 51 percent domestic content minimums, three-location delivery, and firm pricing through June 30, 2027. Buyers uniformly require compliance with Buy American provisions, USDA commodity or nutritional standards, commercial liability insurance ($1–2 million per occurrence), and firm fixed pricing for stated contract periods, with most awarding on best value or lowest responsive bidder criteria and retaining rights to single or multi-vendor awards and contract renewal or termination for convenience.
