UNSPSC 50307615: Dried cured non-heat sterilized ligurian olives

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

UNSPSC 50307615 Dried cured non-heat sterilized ligurian olives is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code span fresh produce, general food commodities, and processed food products for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities, but none explicitly procure dried cured ligurian olives or closely related specialty preserved olive products. Instead, the opportunities reveal that state and local agencies are sourcing broad food-supply categories—fresh vegetables and fruits (apples, berries, leafy greens, citrus), proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous staple items—through consolidated school-nutrition and facility-foodservice RFPs and IFBs. The issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state departments (Georgia statewide procurement, Texas Comptroller on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and regional correctional-system procurement offices.

Recent opportunities with this code show geographic spread across Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, with activity in the May–June 2026 window. Representative solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce (115+ line items across multiple fruit and vegetable categories, sealed bids due June 26, 2026); the City of Bridgeport's IFB for commodities to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center (115 line items covering eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce, electronic bids due June 26, 2026); the Texas Comptroller's IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (approximately 382 line items across proteins, dairy, grains, produce, and staples, response deadline extended to May 4, 2026); and a separate Texas Department of Criminal Justice bid for whole pitted dried prunes (IW236532, due February 20, 2026). All school-nutrition opportunities enforce Buy American provisions requiring at least 51 percent domestic content in processed products. The code shows little relevant recent activity for specialty cured or preserved olives specifically—it appears to be a categorical mismatch with the actual procurement focus on broad fresh and commodity food staples for institutional feeding.
