UNSPSC 50337227: Dried organic seracena olives

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

UNSPSC 50337227 Dried organic seracena olives (Commodity) does not reflect the scope of work actually being solicited by state and local governments under this code. The recent opportunities posted to this code span general food service procurement — pickled vegetables, school nutrition programs, cafeteria and canteen groceries, and institutional meal supply — rather than specialty dried olive products. The Oregon Department of Administrative Services solicited pickle supply on an IFB basis (due October 13, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for canteen and food service groceries to state-supported living centers and state hospitals, covering prepared eggs, frozen vegetables, dairy products, proteins, beverages, condiments, and disposable serviceware. The mix of issuing bodies reflects broad public-sector participation: state departments and purchasing divisions, county and city school boards, city departments of education, health and human services agencies, and special-purpose entities like Invest Atlanta. School districts in Georgia (Tattnall County, Candler County, Colquitt County, Effingham County, Richmond County), Texas (Bridgeport Board of Education), and other states dominate recent activity, each soliciting comprehensive food and paper goods to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program with specifications tied to USDA Child and Adult Care Food Program standards, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content), and HACCP food safety compliance.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with secondary posting activity in Connecticut, Oregon, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's canteen and food service groceries procurement (IFB HHS0017798 and HHS0017799, due August 25, 2026) serving the Mexia State Supported Living Center with historical annual values around $160,500 to $158,000; the City of Bridgeport's grocery items solicitation for its Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services Department (IFB BNB052266, due June 30, 2026) covering over 1,100 line items with Buy American and Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act compliance; the Effingham County Board of Education grocery bid (IFB 50126 FOOD, due June 1, 2026) for weekly delivery to 15 school locations; and Invest Atlanta's dual-track RFP (due August 6, 2026) for food distribution services and municipal market retail operations in Priority Communities, which included economic development incentives such as low-interest loans and grant funding for refrigerated fleet and cold storage. Pricing is typically firm fixed with minimal fuel surcharges, delivery windows are tightly constrained (often 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.), and contracts frequently include escalation clauses tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service reports or Consumer Price Index data capped at 5–10 percent after the initial contract period.
