UNSPSC 50327209: Dried cracked provencal olives

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

UNSPSC 50327209 Dried cracked provencal olives is a Commodity code nominally describing specialty processed olives, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code show little activity aligned with that scope. The five most recent solicitations under this code span fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, cafeteria food products for correctional facilities, and dried prunes—none of which are dried cracked provencal olives. School districts and state correctional departments dominate the issuing bodies, with Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Connecticut), the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice all posting in the past six months. The scope of work actually being solicited includes fresh produce sourcing (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, specialty fruits), frozen and shelf-stable cafeteria staples (proteins, dairy, grains, condiments), and individual commodity items such as dried prunes.

Activity is concentrated in the South and Southwest. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) posted an IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response date covering over 200 line items and delivery to three school locations for the 2026–27 school year. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) issued an IFB for commodities due June 26, 2026, spanning 115 line items of eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted an IFB (No. 304T-26-300CF) for cafeteria food products with approximately 382 line items and a May 4, 2026 response date. The State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date (full scope in attached documentation). A separate TDCJ bid for whole pitted dried prunes (IW236532) closed February 20, 2026. This code shows minimal recent relevance to specialty imported olives and instead reflects generic state and local food procurement activity; vendors should verify that opportunities tagged to this code align with their product lines before pursuing.
