Raspberries are very delicate. I've got maybe a very short 1/4 acre of wild raspberries growing about my yard. And I can tell you that when picked, you can start to see them degrade within an hour or two after picking. Often in less time.
Now I don't know how many raspberries Driscoll picks every day. But by the time they get from the field and get sorted, washed, packed and boxed, and into proper cold storage that might take a good half day or maybe a full day. And then maybe the next day the wholesale grocer comes and gets their order and brings them to their warehouse where they sit in cold storage for another day or two before getting onto the grocery store shelf. It could be nearly a week after you have picked them before you buy them.
Supply chain delay can be a beeotch.
