Washington Red Raspberry Commission

The Washington Red Raspberry Commission (WRRC) was formed in 1976 to support and promote the raspberry industry. The WRRC operates programs that facilitate cultural and harvesting improvements, in addition to regulating unfair trade practices within the industry. It also establishes promotion plans and conducts programs for advertising, sales, promotion and other programs for maintaining present markets as well as creating new or larger markets for raspberries, and it provides for research in the production and processing of raspberries. There are about 20 different suppliers of red raspberry products that comprise the WRRC. Each company is committed to growing, harvesting and processing the highest quality berries in the world, and meeting the most stringent quality standards on the planet. These growers and processors are primarily located in the western part of Washington, as well as southern Canada and northern Oregon.
