UNSPSC 50307800 Dried cured non-heat sterilized organic olives is a Class code that encompasses procurement of fresh and processed produce items for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state food service operations. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily purchasing fresh produce, processed fruits and vegetables, and specialty food items to supply cafeteria and nutrition operations. Recent solicitations show school districts and correctional agencies as the dominant buyers, procuring across broad produce categories including apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, citrus fruits, leafy greens, and specialty items like kiwis, mangos, and papayas, often bundled with other food commodities under unified purchasing contracts. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state agencies (Georgia Department of Corrections and Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal governments acting on behalf of school nutrition centers. Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products are standard across school district contracts. Vendors must typically provide HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, debarment verification, nutritional analyses, state health inspection records, and commercial general liability insurance.
