Raisins were invented (probably by accident) for just that purpose: to remain fresh. The fact that they're dehydrated, along with their sugar content, preserves them without the need for refrigeration. 

An unopened package of raisins will stay fresh for years, if it's kept in a cool, dry place. Once the package is opened, air, moisture and bacteria can get to the raisins, which can shorten their useful life. 

Raisins will freeze very well, because they're so low in moisture. Frozen raisins ought to last (technically) forever.
