Key points
- USDA spent $13.6 million on packaged raisins from Sun Valley Raisins for US government food donations.
- The award is for packaged units, listed as boxes of 1.33 ounce portions and 15 ounce packages, but the record does not say who will get them.
- This purchase touches procurement and packing, the link that moves bulk fruit into donation channels like school meals or food banks.
- The record shows the award date, amount and product codes, but it does not show delivery dates or the final recipients.
- If you want to know where the boxes go next, watch USDA commodity distribution reports and state delivery lists, the record itself gives no next date.
