UNSPSC 10161501: Olive trees

UNSPSC 10161501 Olive trees (Commodity) covers the supply, furnishing, and installation of ornamental and landscaping tree materials for public property improvement and maintenance. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily counties and municipalities purchasing trees for public infrastructure projects—including street and park beautification, median landscaping, and recreational facility grounds. The work encompasses site preparation, soil amendment, planting, mulching, and post-installation maintenance and warranty obligations. Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, municipal public works departments, and city parks or planning divisions. Counties and mid-sized municipalities appear as repeat buyers, with Hillsborough County, Florida and Harris County, Texas among recent active solicitors.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, Texas, and Wisconsin, with the highest concentration in Florida and Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Fitchburg, Wisconsin's 2026 Fall Tree Planting Project (ITB, bids due August 25, 2026) furnishing and installing 66 trees across 17 species with one-year establishment and one-year post-planting maintenance through November 2027; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' Tree Replanting of Scenic Roads (ITB 26-00257, bids due May 26, 2026) for approximately 34,984 linear feet of median and miscellaneous landscaping across eight scenic roadways, estimated at $742,380.00 with six-month establishment and 12-month warranty; and the Town of Palm Beach, Florida's furnishing and installation of approximately 11 Royal Palms and 5 Green Malayan Coconut Palms along Peruvian Avenue (ITB 2026-036, bids due May 29, 2026) with one-year survival warranty.
