UNSPSC 50307811: Dried cured non-heat sterilized organic gaeta olives

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

UNSPSC 50307811 Dried cured non-heat sterilized organic gaeta olives is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure fresh produce, dried fruits, frozen and shelf-stable food products, and related kitchen supplies for school nutrition programs, state institutions, and correctional facilities. The recent opportunities show a sharp divergence between the code's nominal scope and actual purchasing activity: while the code name specifies a narrow product category (cured olives), state and local buyers are soliciting across broad commodity categories including fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, beverages, and condiments. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) both posting produce and commodity RFQs in June 2026. The State of Georgia and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also appear as institutional buyers, the latter issuing IFBs for cafeteria food products and individual staple items. These entities typically reserve the right to award to single or multiple vendors and impose Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content (51 percent for processed products), HACCP compliance, insurance thresholds, and anti-collusion certifications.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas with secondary presence in Connecticut. Hancock County Schools' June 2026 fresh-produce IFB (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026) covers over 200 line items spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus, and specialty fruits, with delivery to three school sites through June 30, 2027. The City of Bridgeport's June 2026 commodities RFQ (BNB053266, due June 26, 2026) encompasses 115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, with Net 45 payment terms and requirement for TITAN School Solutions ordering integration. The State of Georgia issued a broader food-and-kitchen-products solicitation in May 2026 (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026) without disclosed scope details. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of TDCJ, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF (extended to May 4, 2026) covering approximately 382 food line items across five geographic distribution areas, with FOB Destination delivery to six warehouse points and two optional renewal periods through August 31, 2029. The code shows active purchasing but little recent activity specifically targeting cured olives or specialty preserved products.
