UNSPSC 50307612: Dried cured non-heat sterilized hondroelia olives

The variety of olives known as hondroelia olives that have been dried cured non-heat sterilized for preservation.

UNSPSC 50307612 Dried cured non-heat sterilized hondroelia olives is a Commodity code, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under it show minimal alignment with the nominal product scope. School districts and state agencies procuring fresh produce, commodity proteins, and specialty food items for cafeterias and nutrition programs have posted opportunities under this code, yet none of the recent postings explicitly reference olives or dried cured products matching the code's name.

The mismatch between the code's defined scope and actual procurement activity suggests either misclassification at the point of posting or dormancy in the true commodity category. Buyers posting in this space include school nutrition programs (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, the City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and the State of Georgia), all of which use IFBs and require Buy American compliance, firm pricing, delivery to multiple sites, HACCP or USDA certifications, and commercial insurance. No standout repeat buyer emerged from recent postings, and geographic activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas with no clear concentration. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce (IFB, due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 fresh-produce line items for 2026–27 school-year delivery) and the City of Bridgeport COMMODITIES bid (electronic IFB, due June 26, 2026, for 115 line items across eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products). The code shows little relevant recent activity directly tied to dried cured olives; bidders should verify code assignments before pursuing opportunities posted under this classification.
