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

UNSPSC 50376228 Canned or jarred organic yellow himalayan raspberry, a Commodity code, sees active state and local procurement focused on canned and jarred fruit products for institutional food service, though recent opportunities show a broader scope than the code's nominal name suggests. State and local governments buy canned fruit applesauce, dried fruit bars, fresh produce, and other prepared food items for school districts, correctional facilities, health and human services agencies, and municipal nutrition programs. Issuing bodies span school districts (Austin ISD, Rockwood R-VI, Fairfax County Public Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Liberty County Board of Education, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Board of Education), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and local government (City of Bridgeport Connecticut). School nutrition programs dominate the recent opportunity mix, with multiple districts soliciting food product contracts across 2026–27 school years.

The geographic spread includes Texas, Oregon, Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and Florida, with Texas and Georgia appearing most frequently in recent solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing ITB S2910000017453 for canned fruit applesauce (4,760 cases, bids due July 31, 2026) with a historical price of $21.84 per case; Fairfax County Public Schools issuing IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 to supply 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens with sealed bids due April 27, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables statewide covering 210 line items with a maximum potential contract value of $4.5 million over three years (bids originally due March 19, 2026, now extended). School districts typically specify Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content in processed products, maintain firm fixed pricing for 12 months, require delivery FOB destination with transportation prepaid, and award on lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value basis with options for single or multiple vendor awards. Canned fruit products compete within broader food service commodity procurement alongside fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and dry goods; bidders should expect Buy American compliance, USDA/FDA specification alignment, liability insurance minimums of $1 million, and standard food service delivery windows (typically 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekdays).
