UNSPSC 50376228: Canned or jarred organic yellow himalayan raspberry

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 is a Commodity code that in practice covers shelf-stable food products procured for institutional food service—though the recent opportunities block shows little direct purchasing activity under this specific code and instead reflects broader food-commodity procurement across state and local jurisdictions. The issuing bodies are diverse: county boards of education, county government departments, state correctional facilities, state veterans homes, state health and human services agencies, city school districts, and municipal nutrition centers. Representative recent solicitations include Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners seeking approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products (peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables) under an informal written quote (IWQ) with response due October 19, 2026; the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office issuing multiple quarterly RFPs for weekly food orders to the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy with brand-specific and brand-or-equal specifications; the Oregon Department of Corrections issuing an ITB for 4,760 cases of canned applesauce with response due July 31, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an IFB for supplemental food and consumables spanning 210 line items (fresh, frozen, dry, and refrigerated products) with a potential contract value of $4,500,000 over three years.

Recent activity is concentrated in Georgia, Illinois, Oregon, Texas, and Connecticut, with smaller activity in Arizona and Florida. The code itself—canned or jarred organic yellow himalayan raspberry—appears misaligned with the actual scope of these opportunities, which emphasize commodity proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and shelf-stable staples rather than specialty organic raspberry products. Most solicitations employ firm fixed pricing per unit of measure or per case, FOB destination delivery with prepaid freight, and award based on lowest responsive and responsible bidder or best value. School districts, county boards of education, and state institutional food-service programs dominate the buyer base, and most include Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content (typically 51 percent for processed items) and compliance with USDA commodity specifications. Pre-bid or clarification-question phases are standard, with response windows typically 10–30 days from posting.
