UNSPSC 50327205: Dried arauco olives

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

UNSPSC 50327205 Dried arauco olives, a Commodity code, covers dried and preserved olives purchased by state and local governments for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. State and local solicitations under this code reflect procurement of preserved fruit and vegetable products as components of larger food-service contracts rather than standalone specialty items. The issuing bodies are school districts, state departments, and correctional agencies that operate centralized food-service operations. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, the City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice represent the typical buying mix — district-level nutrition programs and state-managed institutional food service.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas based on recent opportunities. Hancock County Schools posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026–27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response deadline; the City of Bridgeport posted a commodities IFB covering 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products, also due June 26, 2026; the State of Georgia issued an IFB for food, supplies, and other kitchen products due June 22, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted an IFB for cafeteria food products with approximately 382 line items and a May 4, 2026 response deadline. The TDCJ also issued a separate IFB in February 2026 for whole pitted dried prunes. All solicitations require Buy American compliance with minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products, HACCP or equivalent food-safety certifications, and delivery to multiple institutional locations on firm-fixed pricing with FOB destination or prepaid freight terms.
