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 that shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—specialty olives with a specific regional preparation—does not align with the recent opportunities posted under this classification. The thirteen most recent state and local solicitations tagged with or cross-referenced to this code overwhelmingly procure fresh produce, eggs, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, beverages, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and district warehouses. Only one opportunity, Santa Clara County's January 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts to its detention facility, comes close to specialty dried commodity procurement; that solicitation specifies raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans but does not reference olives of any kind.

The issuing bodies are predominantly large school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Hancock County Schools) and state purchasing offices (Georgia, Texas) procuring on behalf of school nutrition programs and correctional agencies. A municipal procurement office (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut) and a county detention facility (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department) round out the mix. These are routine, high-volume food supply contracts with response dates concentrated in February through June 2026, predominantly in Georgia and Texas, with activity also in Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, and California. No solicitation posted under or near this code specifically sought dried cracked provencal olives or comparable specialty imported olives. The mismatch between the code's intended commodity and the actual procurement activity suggests either a tagging error in the source data or that this UNSPSC code does not reflect current state and local buying patterns for this product category.
