UNSPSC 50307211: Gaeta olives

The variety of olives known as gaeta olives

UNSPSC 50307211 Gaeta olives (Commodity) does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity posted under this code. Recent opportunities solicited under this commodity code span broadly to include pickled vegetables, school nutrition groceries, cafeteria food products for state institutions, and municipal market food distribution — work substantially wider than the narrow product name suggests. Issuing bodies include state departments of health and human services, state-supported living centers, school boards and school nutrition programs across multiple states, city procurement offices, and independent food distribution authorities. The code sees activity across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Connecticut, with school districts representing a significant portion of the recent buyer base.
