UNSPSC 50327204: Dried amphissa olives

The variety of olives known as amphissa olives that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50327204 Dried amphissa olives, a Commodity code, spans dried fruit procurements by school districts and state corrections departments—though the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show minimal activity actually purchasing amphissa olives specifically. Instead, the posted solicitations reveal that school nutrition programs and institutional food services are buying broad fresh and processed produce assortments, dried fruits such as prunes, and multi-category food commodities where dried olives, if purchased at all, represent a line item among hundreds. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items—apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, and specialty items for the 2026–27 school year, with delivery to three school sites and a June 26, 2026 response deadline. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited 115 line items of commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, also due June 26, 2026. The State of Georgia and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) issued broader food and kitchen product solicitations in May and April 2026, respectively, with TDCJ's cafeteria food procurement spanning approximately 382 line items across proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, beverages, condiments, vegetables, and fruits delivered to multiple warehouse distribution points.

The issuing bodies are school districts and state criminal justice agencies across Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, with school nutrition programs forming the primary buyer segment. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas based on the most recent opportunities. The code shows little evidence of dedicated amphissa olive procurement; the solicitations tagged under this code are commodity food procurements where olives—if included—would be incidental to much larger fresh and processed produce lists. A dedicated dried amphissa olive opportunity has not appeared in the recent state and local contract pipeline. Vendors pursuing this code should recognize that sustained demand flows through standing institutional food-service agreements rather than isolated olive line items, and that school district nutrition programs and TDCJ typically bundle olive purchases within broader multi-category food RFBs or cooperative purchasing arrangements.
