UNSPSC 50327205: Dried arauco olives

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

UNSPSC 50327205 Dried arauco olives is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities do not reflect purchasing of dried arauco olives specifically. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code show school districts and criminal justice agencies procuring broad food-supply contracts that include fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous grocery items; a few opportunities reference dried fruits generally (dried prunes, dried fruits and nuts mixes, dried raisins and cranberries), but none specifically identify arauco olives as a line item or procurement focus. The code appears to be a misclassification artifact within these solicitations, as dried olives are not mentioned in any of the twelve available opportunities.

The issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts (Hancock County Schools and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri; Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia; Douglas County School System in Georgia) and state criminal justice agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice and County of Santa Clara's detention facility in California), plus one city education system (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut). School nutrition procurement dominates this code's tagged activity. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Schools' fresh produce RFP due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items across apples, berries, vegetables, and melons; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K–12 IFB due April 27, 2026, requiring bidders to supply 76 or more items from a school delivery section; and Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs due March 4, 2026, across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million and $1.1 million respectively. Activity concentrates in Georgia and Virginia, with secondary presence in Connecticut, Missouri, California, and Texas. The code shows no recent activity specifically tied to dried arauco olives as a commodity being procured by state or local agencies.
