UNSPSC 50307725: Dried cured non-heat sterilized Non-GMO ponentine olives

The variety of Non-GMO olives known as organic ponentine olives that have been dried cured non-heat sterilized for preservation.

UNSPSC 50307725 Dried cured non-heat sterilized Non-GMO ponentine olives is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity under it does not align with the code's nominal scope. The posted opportunities tag this code to school nutrition and institutional food procurement, yet the actual line items being solicited — fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), proteins (chicken, beef, fish), dairy products, grains, and miscellaneous staples — bear no material connection to dried olives. The mismatch suggests either a classification error in the posting systems or that this code has been repurposed to capture broader food commodity categories. State and local issuing bodies procuring under this code include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia and Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut) and state agencies managing institutional food supply (Georgia Department of Education and Texas Department of Criminal Justice).

Recent activity is concentrated in the South and concentrated around school nutrition contracts and institutional food supply. Hancock County Schools (Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response deadline, specifying over 200 line items across multiple produce categories and requiring HACCP plans and domestic content certification. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted IFB BNB053266 on June 2, 2026, requesting bids on 115 line items of food commodities (eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products) for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, with electronic submission by June 26, 2026 and MBE/CBE certifications applicable. The State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products (PE55645NONST2026000000009) due June 22, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB No. 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic areas, with a response deadline of May 4, 2026. All recent opportunities impose Buy American domestic content requirements and firm fixed pricing through the contract period.
